Joined the 3 pound club today

I had a great time fishing with Jimb and Wes/ fatslab today. We caught some real nice fish and a few Big citations. Wes caught a nice 15" incher and I got luckey and caught a 3pound 2oz slab. I've been looking for this fish for a lot of years and finally caught it. Thanks Jimb for inviting me to fish with you today. Great job on the net Jim, I really didn't know that the fish was that big until Jim measured it at 17.50". Some fish were caught casting to the shore but most were caught long lining. The Big fish were caught long lining in 4' to 8' FOW.water temps were 59 / 60. I fished hard in Florida this year and caught some real good fish but Virginia has some good size fish also.

WTG, very nice fish. Now a new goal needs to be set. How about a 4 lb'er?

I stopped by Wippanuts store at Wippanuts creek on Lake Chesdin this weekend and there was picture of a crappie that weighed 3 pounds and 9 ounces that someone had caught Sat.

I know its been awhile but I was as happy for you as if I had caught it myself. Hey Richard I hope it's me when it's caught. :biggrin

I picked up some nice ones there this past Saturday even though it was muddy Attachment 160559Attachment 160560
