Sorry to hear about your mom, but glad you able to slow it down a bit now. So hope you can catch the crappie. We have had to fish a lot different this year as the hydrilla is not in shallow water much at all and in water 10' and deeper so the crappie are holding in 12' to 20' of water and I am still trolling my 1/32 Oz. Roadrunners and catching them the few time I have been out.
