all fish caught on 1/32 and kalin's money jig... all released to get bigger!

i may need to fish this lake more often! :)

No doubt that Money jig works. Monks had sent me a sample pack some time ago and I tried it one day at the North Landing River and when I caught crappie there on it, I knew it would catch crappie elsewhere. Nice pics. It sure would be nice to have a large pond like that just out my back door.

Nice fishing and great pictures. Congrats on the paperwork. When not in the Suffolk lakes, I love fishing in larger sized privates lakes for crappie. I've pulled 12 citations up to 16 inches in the last month. My most recent one was on a black/green roadrunner. 15" male that was jet black. Beautiful fish. Anyways keep reeling in those trophies man.

Nicely done :HandsClapping

Nice catching! I was particularly impressed with photo #5.

Great! Nice biggun there.

Very nice pictures, looks like an all around great day!

i cast the little 1/32 jig and was slowly retrieving when all of a sudden i saw a silver FLASH and then BAM!!!! it was such a great fight on my 7ft ultralight and standing 4 feet off the water on a dock... i was scared the whole time it would get off the hook but i managed to land it! definately my biggest caught on ultralight tackle!

i actually need to order some more cause i only have a few left! thank you for telling me about them!

my uncle is definately lucky to live on this pond/lake! he doesnt ever fish it though?! i will be bringing a pole with me every time i go out to his house from now on! :)

yep quite a few slabs so far this year. otters are my biggest enemy at the moment. Private lakes can be quite a gem. Your fish was over 15" with the mouth closed and tail lobe penched together right? Thats a great fish, I'd write him up. A lot of people would love to catch something like that.
