I went again this morning and weather channel said 2 to 4 mph wind . But that was a mistake and the east wind was tough . Slowed before lunch and was able to hunt them down in open water once more . Kept a limit with everything over 12''. The same purple / chartreuse Umbella tube rigged on a Timmy Tom insert jig head . Swung them with Huckabee Phantom 13' jig pole . Hunted most of them down with live scope .
I had something happen that I never saw before . Hung a good fish in a top and it got hung . Tried to knock it loose and finally got the boat paddle after it . Thought I could pull the limb up . Wrong caught the line and it broke . Dang , next thing I saw was a Crappie swimming on top coming to the boat with my jig in his mouth . Reached over and picked him up .
Will post a photo later when I fillet them .
