    Default 3+ Pound Crappie


    I probably already know the answer to this but I would like to hear from you all.
    I want a shownuff wall hanger! I catch alot of crappie, every week, every month, every year. I catch several a year over 2 lbs. I have always said when I hit over 3lbs he goin on the wall.
    I would be willing to burn days, weeks, months fishing in waters with little success to try to catch that Hawg. So my question is: Where would you look for a monster?
    I like to trot line flatheads on Lake Conway. I set up in and around the deepest parts of the lake, one day I caught a crappie on my line that was almost 24", I didn't weight it because I would have been sick due to catching it on a trot line not a pole.
    The reason I tell you this is that when I caught this fish it was the first of April about 12ft on the bottom of the lake, The crappie were still shallow.

    Grenada or Sardis in MS probably be the best that I know of.

    That's a box full! But I see no Hawgs...
    Lake Conway has several 3lb fish caught a year. I intend on staying on lake Conway.

    I had a buddy of mine go fishing on Beaverfork last Thursday and the guy he was with caught a 3.12lb crappie on a small crank. It measured at 18in. I know the first crappie I get thats over 3lb is going straight on the wall. Here's the pic of the crappie.

    This is the guy who caught it.

    A man is truly blessed, when he returns home from fishing to be greeted by the best catch of his life.
