    Default Quality trip


    Went to private lake known for 3 lb ers and big bg. My bud who is ate up w numbers and had been k8lling them on bigger lakes kept apologizing but I caught a 15 + inch crappie, several 12 to 13+ and couple big bg. So I was fine. First time I ever did better than my obsessed friend. So on next to he laid the smackdown upon me which is just fine. Always interesting and educational with him as he basically dock shot while standing sideways to hole and put it way back and caught 6 real n8ce ones.

    Then went to another lake where he had brush planted and picked up more.

    Great day overall as I was ketchn lots of bass on first lake and released them plus the big Slab of course. Name:  20220418_110018.jpg

    oh weather was COLDDDD and breezy and did mostly scouting till next week and they were not talking much. best thing about it was if they are wanting to gobble and work you hunt if not the crappie are usually cooperating.

    Great day, cool that you released the big one. If they are over 14" I let crappie get a free pass. I might get lucky and catch them again in a year or two when they are a lot bigger.

    I need to make more of those baits with the blade behind the hook that I call Tail Gunner's. I've had good success with them over the years but a good percentage of the fish I catch with them swallow it and I catch and release most of the time. The flashing blade behind the hook works almost too well.
