I was at Shell from 2 till 7 this afternoon. caught about 75 total. 30 keepers with 1 14" slab. I was fishing a brush pile in 12' of water and a tree that's sticking out of 8' of water. The tree was producing whites at 7' deep and blacks at about 3' also a large mouth and 4 sandies. Made for a good day and will be a tasty dinner tomorrow night.
Congrats.
Sounds like a super day on the lake.

WTG, sounds like you caught a real nice mess. Bet you had a blast.
Yes it was. My daughter is in the kitchen frying some of 'em up right now. I'm still new to this crappie fishing but I'm learning fast.
Welcome Dinobot, your well on your way to more good fishing and eating.
Went out again yesterday with my younger brother. I really need to get a couple of clickers but rough guess we caught between 150 and 175 we both kept our limits. Most of them were small between 8 and 12" caught in 3.5 to 6' of water. We ended up with a little over 6lbs. of fillets. It was a blast the action was so hot we had to put up our minnow poles and just jig fish we couldn't keep up with 2 poles each. We were catching "em on anything with blue, white, or chartreuse but when I tied on a jig with a blue tip white body and chartreuse tail they went crazy.
Thanks for the reports! I have never fished Shell Lake before...is there any bank fishing access?
Very little bank access right around the boat ramp but you're more than welcome to tag along sometime when my brother can't make it. Always better to have 2 in the boat so we can keep more fish.
Great report, glad to see your taking advantage of the fall bite.
Great report, dinobot. It awesome when they're bitting like that!!!!
