Good day with the wife

Eileen and I had a great half day of fishing. We were off the water by noon because it got too hot. We did manage to catch plenty of fish with the biggest crappie being 15.25" We also caught 3 citation yellow perch and a 23" pickerel. All fish caught tight lining with jigs in 10' to 15' FOW. My wife said to me that she needed a tune up before we go to Florida and she got a good one.

Very nice catch.

nice catch and beautiful perch. Those orange fins are unreal.

Way to go Vic and Eileen! Thanks for the pickerel picture but I think the perch are even nicer. I'd say that trip made a nice "tune up" for sure.

Oh boy, does this mean we a getting closer to looking at pics of you with giant crappie while we shiver through another cold winter? I sure am envious. :biggrin Nice outing.

Tap, you know you can do something about that. You can come to Florida and fish with us for a few days. Jimb is thinking about doing that, maybe you can join him. I don't post the pictures to rub it in on you all, some guys ask me to post them and if it were me I would enjoy seeing them during cold winter months.

Great Job with the Boss Lady Vic! Looks like Your ready for Florida. Wish I could go with Ya!CF

Vic & Eileen, FL is not far away. Great tune-up....:highfive

Its a program the state has where they will issue a citation that can be framed for catching a fish that meets a certain length or weight. Trophy Fish Size Chart Years ago they gave out real nice wooden plaques but I guess that got too expensive.

Thanks.

WTG VIC,NICE CATCH,LOOKS LIKE EILEEN IS BACK UP TO HER OLD TRICKS,SURE HOPE WE GET TO GO
