Had the pleasure yesterday to take Mike Six and family fishing on Chickamauga Lake near Chattanooga. Mike and I had talked about this trip for a year when he questioned me about using planner boards for crappie fishing. Got started around 8:30 and fished till 5;30. Ended the day with 38 fat Tennessee blacks and one Blue Cat. Had 125 short fish. Windy condition but they braved thru it. Tuff Gang. I'm sure he post pix soon. Tenncrappie
Thanks Chris! Fishing was awesome. You made my day watching my son catch some of the biggest and fattest crappie I've seen in my life. Jake is ready for more!
Jake reeling in the big one!
Great time on the Chick

Looks like a great trip with some great pics. Thanks for sharing
Hope you guys left some for seed. rnvinc and I will be down there Thursday and Friday with Chris. When we learn that planer board tactic, we intend to put a major dent in the KY/Barkley Lakes crappie population.
Very nice.:ThumbsUp
you got the best planner board crappie guy here in Tennessee....However I might be bias...
Come back and visit our great lake!Attachment 155960
Way to go :fish
Don't know about that. The inventor is da man!!!! Thanks TnHooker!!!!!!
Fun times - good pics.
We did leave a few for you MrDux , we also had some fun pulling in a couple big blue cats which was real fun on light tackle. The thing I was amazed with was the quality of fish we put in the cooler, out of the 39 keepers only about 4 were 11" the rest were super fat 13 and 14's. Awsome fishing
Great trip, same some for me. I fished with Tenncrappie last fall and put me on fish too.

Hi.
What were yall pulling behind the planer boards there guys? I usually use the bandits, or RR's.
Mostly Bobby Garlands and southern grubs, I think they were electric chicken, popsicle, double silver and a few other combos of orange, chartuese, and blue on 1/16 oz jigs.
Funny story, I also posted this on the Ohio game fishing web site and some of use on there had a good laugh because a guy ask why all the excitement about crappie fishing. He said he had never fished for cappie before but he sees alot of post at crappie. Well after all the post about how awsome the are specially with morel mushrooms they guy decided he was going to try mushroom hunting and crappie fishing this year.
