Finally back at it for real , took my jon boat and met a buddy from work to do some crappie /perch fishing.We got into em steady at 1st dozen or so then they quit moved around got 1 or 2 more then got onto a good bunch and steady caught till noon when we quit. Got 84 crappie 6 yellow perch 1 bass and 1snagged mud shad. They wanted the jigs held just about still and 2ft off bottom ,water temp was 37 to 39.54 of the crappie were good ones with the biggest rite at 14" the biggest perch was 13" .Fin-s in chart. and smelt were good as well as old school shad dart and minnows. I usually don't even take minnows anymore but the guy who came with me brought em and we fished them on the rods in the holder and held the ones with jigs in our hands they worked about even .Felt good to go tear em up again.Now its winter wonderland again ,come on spring!
