    Default Had A Good Day Today


    I had a good day fishing today, was on the lake at 6:15am and fished till 9:30 am, I caught a total of 27
    and here are a couple of pics.
    This is the biggest and it weighed 1.95lbs and when I first looked at here belly I thought she might have
    already spawned but she was full of eggs and just a little poor for some reason.



    Here's a few of the better ones and a lot were small but it the private lakes I fish the rules are you keep
    every crappie. Everyone will be eat because I clean and give away my fish to several families in town to
    help them out.

    It's 1' wide and 3' long 3/4" plywood, I built rails so the the white container with slide out for the guts etc. The hose you see is a sink sprayer and it's covered with 99 cent adhesive tile which I need to replace. It's mounted on an outside wall of my shop under the covered porch at a height that I don't have to bend over( bad back), it really works great.

    That is well thought out. I think the sliding trey is a great idea. How deep were those crappie holding?

    I was fishing in 8' to 10' of water about 4' to 5' deep with minnows. I caught a lot of them around some bamboo I sank 2 weeks ago. They wouldn't hit anything else. If you look at the picture I posted in this thread you will see where I caught them. They were about 30-40' off the bank and in about a 30yrd stretch along it. right in front of where I took that picture

    Congrats on a good day out! I like that cleaning station. I put a sink and counter out in my garage for the same reason. I like your sliding tray/container, makes for easy clean up I'll bet.
