Slow but good day.

I only manages to boat 4 crappie today. But the biggest was 2.6 pounds! That's one fish made it worth it. I caught it in the same place as the other large crappie that I have caught in the pool this year. Around 7 foot of water and not close to any structure. Go figure. For some reason I have been able to pull at least one good crappie from this spot every time I have been there the past 4 weeks. I have been catching these bigger crappie on a Midsouth tube, trimmed and tipped with a minnow. After the first hour of light, they don't want a jig tipped with a minnow anymore. The other four crappie that I caught were caught off of a couple brush piles and one in the grass. Wish I would have read Russ's post before I went out today.

My bad! Did I mention that I am blind as a bat without my glasses! :)

Nice fish Matt...a big un

Nice fish Matt, Try pushing the envolpe and move fast on those piles to increase you numbers catch. If after about 10 mins you have not caught anything... pick up and move to another always... mark with a bouy to keep you orientated and save time knowing your fishing the sweet spot. Very Nice fish brother.

If I am in an area I know that has several piles close to each other, I will mark three or four and go from one to another.

another nice one Matt

Nice un

Nice fish Matt. Way to go.

Very nice fish Matt. Thats why so many people keep going back to that place, even after being thoroughly humbled numerous times. There's always a chance of catching that biggun!

Nice catch there.

Attachment 181526turned ya right side up buddy! nice fish!!

Thanks Greg. I'm still not sure why some of my pictures come out sideways.

Nice fish there Matt.

What a nice fish. I'm pretty sure we have not caught a 2lber this year, but the year is not over. For those of us up here in small fish land, that is a fish of a lifetime.

Good job Matt!

Nice one D-10 thats a slab!!! Thanks for taking care of our fish's!!!
