Crappie Wall Hanger II
Icing Kansas Trout!!
Hit up a couple of ponds/lakes on Ft Riley this morning, I caught 14 "stocker" rainbow trout(8-14") long!Fished 7 ftow and used a ratso, a Lindy Toad jig and a Slender spoon, all tipped with spikes and caught fish from right on the bottom to just a foot under the ice! Fun for about an hour and then I decided to to another pond in search of some crappie! Hit the second pond and could only find 4.5ftow, dropped the spike tipped Ratso down and got hit instantly! Ended up catching 6 small gills before heading to another "crappie" pond! It was way low and I could only find 1.5 ftow so I didn't fish it! Headed home for some lunch and then I'm heading back out to some bass ponds!!!
Ice was 4-5" everywhere that I checked and all fish are still swimming!!

Nice fish Joe.I use to fish the trout pond on Fort Riley. My Dad use to take me and a buddy from school.
Do they still have the bait shop open on the base? They had some cool stuff back in the day.
Wishing you Blue Skies and Tight Lines
