Going in after em!!!

Had a blast with lslangler (Mark) today before he headed back to St Charles.

He tried to teach me to catch rocks, but try as I may, I couldn't get the hook set down.

Caught em on jigs and on minnows under a bobber or just pitchin and slooooowww retrieve em back.

I pitched a minnow by a log, got hit right away, set the hook, fish pulled me under the log, on the way back out, the hook took a bite into the log. I assume the fish is long gone, I'm using braid, can't break it, can't get close enough in those shallows to get it worked free. I give one more hard tug and I can see the fish tail from under the log, HE'S STILL ON!! The graph showed 1.5' under the trolling motor, I'm guessing about crotch deep. Shoes off, socks on, I'm going in. Big fish of the day for me.

Egg sell lent weekend fishing and visiting with folks at camp.

I'm tarred.

Glad u guys got em today, good talking to both of u this weekend!

Sounds like a fun - Way to get'em!!!

Pictures or it didn't happen!

U

Mark couldn't work my phone camera.

I witness it, I was afraid that he was going to strip down to go after it.:yikes

he may be in line for another shirt??

I'm not even surprised.

Congrats, guys!

I totally believe he did it. He is just that hooked on crappie.

Nice report. I doubt many people will be trying your technique. Glad you still got the fish.

I was warm enough; I should have left him my crappie thong! :puke:biggrin

So, did you make some stone soup out of that rock?
