Quality trip

Went to private lake known for 3 lb ers and big bg. My bud who is ate up w numbers and had been k8lling them on bigger lakes kept apologizing but I caught a 15 + inch crappie, several 12 to 13+ and couple big bg. So I was fine. First time I ever did better than my obsessed friend. So on next to he laid the smackdown upon me which is just fine. Always interesting and educational with him as he basically dock shot while standing sideways to hole and put it way back and caught 6 real n8ce ones.

Then went to another lake where he had brush planted and picked up more.

Great day overall as I was ketchn lots of bass on first lake and released them plus the big Slab of course. Attachment 425125Attachment 425126Attachment 425127Attachment 425128

BTW those two big uns were on a jig junglejimjigs gave me earlier. A orange 16th with blade on hook.

Sounds like an awesome trip. Congrats on some good quality fish in my book

Excellent! Good luck on the thunder chickens!

oh weather was COLDDDD and breezy and did mostly scouting till next week and they were not talking much. best thing about it was if they are wanting to gobble and work you hunt if not the crappie are usually cooperating.

Good job! Thanks for sharing

I get it, keys are right next to each other, I do that all the time with my fat f8ngers. Great job Keith.

Great day, cool that you released the big one. If they are over 14" I let crappie get a free pass. I might get lucky and catch them again in a year or two when they are a lot bigger.

I can testify that you do as I saw you release your PB crappie and I took the pic. sorry we too busy with papa day care each that we that only day we could get together it was nasty. Thanks again for your artwork jigs!

I need to make more of those baits with the blade behind the hook that I call Tail Gunner's. I've had good success with them over the years but a good percentage of the fish I catch with them swallow it and I catch and release most of the time. The flashing blade behind the hook works almost too well.
