The boys and I had a great day, Saturday. We didn't limit out, so our LOSER status is still safe but we caught a ton of fish.
The crappie bite was fairly decent. We were catching fish regularly all day long. Unfortunately, the vast majority of them were not big enough to keep.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that we caught 60-70 fish between the three of us (we didn't count), however, we only kept 8. Of the 8, only 3 of them had any real size to them.
We did catch two that were 13.5" and one that was 12".
My fallback plan to fill the live well was the shell cracker bite. However, for the first time this year, of the 8-10 bream we caught, none were big enough to keep. We probably could have caught more, but the crappie bite was too enticing. We went back to chasing the paper mouths.
Yesterday underscored something I've known all along, it is who you are fishing with, not what you are fishing for that makes a day great. On that note, gentlemen, yesterday was a GREAT day!
