Hot weather Crappie

Found a few crappie off the bank in 10' of water yesterday at Percy Priest. Got rained on but on a Wednesday there was very little boat traffic. Just me and the Almighty watching out for me. Bought a Booyah teaser rig. It's a small variation of the Alabama rig that the bassers use around her. It only has one hook with four teasers. The fish cannot resist it even though quite often i'll get a hit on one of the unarmed baits. Caught twenty something of mixed varieties. Black and White Crappie, smallmouth and bluegill. Great way to spend an afternoon!
How do i post pictures that are not laying on their sides?

Sounds like an awesome trip

To stop sideways pics : download the free Crappie.com app and post the pics thru there.

Due to the constant updating of phones & this site, pics can come out tilted 1/4 turn to the left because the site doesn't always recognize the orientation code of the pic and tries to "correct" it.

Any pic I want to post is downloaded to a post in the Testing Area forum, then I copy/paste it to the specific post I want it in. In that forum I can see what the pic will look like & if it's in the correct orientation before I post it anywhere else. That's the original concept behind having the Testing Area forum.

The only other way I know of to "pre-correct" the orientation of a picture you want to post on here is to put the phone camera on "portrait" mode, but take the pic with the phone tilted to your right (landscape mode) and let the site "correct" the orientation ... basically fooling the site into turning the pic to the correct position. And it's been so long since I did it that way, I'm not sure it even still works. :dono

I found out on my iPhone if you just open photo in photos app and then edit the photo and save that it uploads correctly. I usually either color enhance or crop and then save. When uploading they are always correct then.
