Went to Lee Saturday with my son David. We fished in two different boats because we had to take my wife's brother and nephew who were visiting from Texas City, TX. Neither had Crappie fished before and the nephew had never even tasted Crappie. David took the F&F and the nephew and I took the brother-in-law in the Triton. This is also a testimony to the "Add-A-Seat" that you see advertised on this page sometimes. I just bought one for the Triton and we used it Saturday. I weight 225 and the brother-in-law weighs in at 360! The add-a-seat was rock solid all day long......I never would have believed it would work that well but it is a solid piece of equipment. I wouldn't think of adding pedestal bases if I had the option to get an add-a-seat....buying another one for the other boat. We fished Saturday until 1:00 and between the two boats we caught well over 125 Crappie. We left the lake with 96 very good filet-sized Crappie (up to 16 inches) and 6 bluegill. I hate to admit this but I have to give David credit.....His boat brought out 60 of the 96 total that were kept and they caught the last 20 from 12:00 till 1:00. We were catching them fishing 8 ft deep in 16-18 FOW with black firetails. I went back today by myself and kept 41 Crappie by 5:20. They had moved back out into the middle and gone deep and even changed the colors they would bite. I had to fish 14-16 ft deep trolling pretty fast to get them to bite. Also had to sit out a pretty good storm that rolled into Lee today and had to don the raingear a couple of times while out on the water. It was a real good weekend in spite of the rain.
