Just wanted to let you guys know that the ice is close to 13" now and the crappies are biting real good. They are only averaging about 9 inches tho. The blacks have nice thick fillets on them but the whites are kind of thin. Have fun catch and release or take some home for a fishfry. They're delicious. And don't worry, you wont hurt this year class of fish. They had a tremendous hatch 2 seasons ago and there's plenty to go around.
