.... yeah, but it was the same back when the size limit was 9"
... you could catch a ton of 8 7/8" fish. Then all of a sudden people started catching 11-14" fish in numbers and the KDFWR decided to up the size limit to 10"
(and now here we are, again
I’ve only fished Taylorsville for the last 5-6 years. Has the limit always been 15?

Best I remember, yes, it has always been 15/day/person. It's only a 3000 acre lake, opened in 1983 ... and the first couple of decades since opening you'd be lucky to catch a 9" Crappie that wasn't paper thin. I've fished it since it opened, but spent a lot of those early years Bass fishing it because of the poor condition of the Crappie back then.

No rhyme or reason to most any fish. Just try to be there when they are biting'. Sign at one of my old beach piers said- You should have been here yesterday!

Amazing. Like a giant underwater bell rings, and they start biting or stop. How every fish in a huge lake can all act in concert is crazy.
Maybe they will bite this one……

Sometimes it's just time of day. We fished a lake for a week straight and learned quickly after 1 pm just put the boat up. We hammered fish until 1pm then they were done!

The lake I fish is the premier musky lake in Ohio. When I have been catching and they just shut off, sometimes the reason is a big ol' musky has moved into the area and the bite stops. Big channels or a flatheads can do that too. The crappie go immobile, belly to the bottom and don't move. Kind of like a squirrel who sees a hawk and they freeze on the side of the tree pointing downwards till the threat has passed. Could be a number of things.
