    Default Caught a few


    I finally got off work early enough to hit the local pothole (Lake Monticello) for a couple of hours yesterday. I was able to catch 6 black crappie with five of them being between 13-15 inches and one outlier that was 10.5. The biting was kinda slow but they still made a good mess. I had my 2 1/2 yr-old grandson with me so it was hard to pay attention to the fishing part. Caught them on shiners from 12-18 feet deep in 40 ft water. Tomorrow I will go to either Lake Washington (close to Greenville) or the "rockpile" which is south of Eudora for a day of trolling. One of my buddies caught 51 at Washington on Tuesday and kept 30 (the limit). When I figure out how to post pics I will show them.

    After fishing L. Monticello a couple of times, I think that would be a fantastic place to drag crankbaits. It could be really good right now while they are suspended over that deeper water. I plan to ease over there when they head for the bottom.

    Man, do I like Lake Monticello! It's just so far to go, I don't get around there too often.

    Seems like the crappie ought to be hangin' out on the fence rows near the old house pretty soon.
