    Default Not a crappie but.......


    I went out catfishing last night with a buddy of mine. Took my kayak out looking for some crappie, after about an hr of nothing but small ones I headed back to where we were setup for catfish. Caught a palm sized bluegill and casted it out in hopes of a flathead. About 30 mins later the clicker starts screaming and 10 mins later I got this nice striper. Ended with 2 flatheads, a channel and the striper. Not sure of the weight but id say 20-25lbs maybe. For size reference I'm 6ft, 240lbs and that shoe is a size 14.

    Both flatheads were about 8lbs and the channel was around 3lbs. All good eating size. Hooked something else that was big but broke me off in a brush pile, my guess is a bigger flathead.
