My wife and grandaughter had a great day on the water.
Bite was slow and scattered, but managed to take 12 home.

I wanted to make one more post just to close out my picture story about my trip to Lake Washington this last Spring. You may have read some of my “Best Trip Ever” stories earlier. If not you can find them here: https://www.crappie.com/crappie/list...Slab-s-Stories
