Thread: eater crappie

had some time before Easter family dinner .....what to do?
granddaughter says lets go FISHING!!!!! okay then.
went to long lake first, tried pulling jigs....nothing , but we did see a mama goose on her nest , a bunch of turtles , some ducks and Livy got to drive the boat a bit.
next stop thornapple lake near our house , I figured we could get a few crappie in a channel that usually holds some crappie this time of year, it did not disappoint us.
17 smallish crappie , mostly on minnows but a few on small jig tipped with a wax worm.
Livy caught 6 by herself, she told me that several times!!
water was 46 degrees and somewhat stained.
great start to my Easter.
