Hey Guys,

A friend of mine is one of the biologists working West Kentucky. We spoke a few weeks ago about this. A big part of their study is the fall netting survey. Which has shown less productive years the past few. However there are variables such as weather, water levels, and seasonal crappie movements. So maybe, just maybe there is some room for error. I know year before last the big push of shallow crappie was more in late November and December. The water was fairly warm up into mid November.

I guess time will tell huh. And I agree with you all. A fifteen or twenty fish limit wouldn't hurt my feelings either. 15 slabs are more then enough for a good meal.
