Thread: Heres the Big One

There was an earlier thread that asked about a big crappie. This is the picture that I received. Supposedly it was caught out of Lake Conway and weighed 5 pounds 1 ounce. Don't ask if its real because I couldn't tell ya :p

looks a little "fishy" to me in the area of his right hand...around the tail...looks like his hannd is behind the fish holding a shorter fish with a photo-shopped finger over it. But who knows could just be a weird angle, im no photo expert. I hope it is real, I would love to see that bad boy in person

Don't know about 5 lbs but still a nice fish.

Nice, I thought I was going to die till I seen the pic.

I've seen this picture about a year ago:

4 1/2 Lb Crappie

This story says caught in Southern Illinois back in March of 2010.

Maybe he released it into Lake Conway for spawnin' purposes and just happen to re-catch it a year later. Then took a picture wearing the same jacket...and hat...

You'd think a hand would use more firewood over a year than that ole boy did though...

Now you know know" The Rest of the story"!

Gained a half pound and moved to a different lake in a years time. Lots of people do that.

it looks kinda of fishy 2 me but it could be real

Thanks for posting the pic. It is a big fish. But 5#? A long way from it's home waters though.
