Choctawhatchee Crappie - Nice ones by Arkansas jiggers
don3778 - Don and Amy - stopped by this afternoon after spending a few hours on the Choctawhatche River out of Smokehouse. They were the only boat on the river. We met up on crappie.com. They had a really good catch a few days ago and presented me with 13 today that ran 11.25 to about 13.25 inches. Darn nice fish. Don and Amy are both avid crappie anglers from Arkansas and have jig fishing down pat. I talked to them about noon and they were half froze and fighting the wind trying to hold the boat over crappie holes they found this week. Looking for low 20's tonight but I will be out there tomorrow after it warms up a bit.
Don and Amy's catch today.

Good day on the Choctawhatchee
Got a limit yesterday in the middle of the day in about 1 hr 45 minutes. 43 total but had to release a bunch. Just caught them for the fun. Still biting when I quit. Jigs and minnows used for bait. It didn't seem to matter which but the bite was faster on minnows. Only one big slab 14.25 inches. The rest 10 to about 12. First time I have ever caught a limit on the river.
