In the rain ....

[Ketchn]

We been getting some the last few days , water is looking soiled a bit and rising .....
if you remember a while back , about 2 moths ago , I set a couple of bamboo condos in 2 boat slips ...
Not sure about who why or what , but I am for sure positive about the outcome ....
K A B O O M ! ! !
them there crappie were all over the tops of them yesterday in the rain , no more than 3 foot down from the surface mind ya .....it's 8 fow and they are 4 or 5 foot tall ....and the crappie were on top of them ....
kept about 4 foot of line off the rod tip and drug it to and fro across the tops of the condos ....
boy howdy was that magic , ever hooked a big crappie with 4 foot of line on your 5.5 foot rod before ?
well to say the least you best be prepped for it , my thing is this with the large ones ....
if possible before they have a clue what just happened , GET THEM OUT OF THE WATER !
if or when I hook a big crappie , my ONLY agenda is too put it on a dry surface in the blink of an eye ....
a big crappie in the water is likely in lot's of cases to remain a big crappie in the water if you are not well prepped to remove said fishee from the water .....just saying
now mind ya this part , when they are that "green" ....
the fight will be to get your hands on it as it loses it's mind where it lands
had a right frisky one escape the image episode yesterday , was in super jump and fight mode , had my hand on it for a second and then ....gone
saw a few minners playing a lil on the dock edge , but no crappie seemed to on the dock edges with them yesterday ....go figure
AND >>>>
no crappie.com apparel involved yesterday ....my bad
p.s. used a FOUR color jig yesterday , wonder why you say ....contrast my friends , LOTS of it for that less than clear water type stuff is good thing

Love the multi color jigs and the results speaks for itself. That's why I paint my jigs with three or four colors. It certainly works for you.

I didn't noticed the shirt until you mentioned it. Nice! I've yanked many fish out of the water on hookset and boy are they upset to be removed quickly and have tons of fight. Those are some good catches Ketchn. Oh one last thing...KABOOM!!!
