Every Dog Has His Day

And today was mine. Been fishing for thirty + years and today was the first time I ever had to let crappie go to stay legal. :rolleyes: Fished Black River had my limit before 11:30. Fished about four foot deep with pink and white jig. 99% grabbed it on the way down as I would bring jig up to top and let it free fall.

Tree tops perpendiculat to the bank. The bigger the better, dropped jig to bottom and twitched it, then pulled within two inches of suface and let it free fall,over and over, jig never set still, you could see most of them come up and grab it. REally cool.

Man that does sound really cool. I'm surprised Black River was that clear. The last time I crossed it (can't remember whether it was at Elgin or Jacksonport) it was pretty dingy.

Great catch! Makes me want to go tomorrow. I spent a few hours running the Black last weekend, just exploring. I hunt it more than I fish it. I need to try to find some slack water to fish.
