    Yes, it really was unbelievable. Even here and 18" crappie is not at all common,and to reach three pounds around here they usually have to be 181/2" full of shad and or eggs. The best of the ones we caught may have made 3,but more likely 2.9 lbs! I have a pessimistic side that causes me to wonder how anyone could get them to eat plastic at a seafood buffet Giants, but I am happy that you can.
