Well, not a bad couple hours after the rain. Prolly caught 20 crappie, most small, but 6 nice'uns, one in particular which was 14.25. Another touched 14.

Attachment 189098
The one in my right hand was 14.25 and weighed 1.43lbs. On Crescent it woulda been a 2lber easy.

Anchor Man and anyone that may fish Griffin in the future will be happy to know. I did not want to clean fish today! doh - none were "released to the grease".

Let it go and let it grow.

Release your seed fishy.

Make lots o babies, Griffin is getting better each year.

Don't be looking real close at the pictures here. I know exactly where I released them, and they promised not to move all too far. They're my fish.rotfl

Oh I forgot to mention. This guy came by ask if I had seen Shu.

Actually a real nice guy. Let me off with a warning for not having any life jackets.

Just kidding. He checked us for safety equipment and yay, we passed.

Good Job Slab!! DrDore and I hit it this morning and it was on. He had gotten a couple of 8' rods for Christmas and made 3 trips without getting the stink on them. We changed that today. Caught about 25 and kept 17, freezer is empty, and visited with friends that were enjoying the day too. Glad you got em figured out, aggravating when you know you're doing what you know will work and it doesn't happen. Good job with the C&R also, my last 3 were just that. Too cold to clean em anyway.

Tim I was not going to rub it in that it took you several years to get him retrained. Had to break him from all those bad Billbob habits. Lol

That is not who I saw on Griffin today. The two Gentlemen were in a boat with GREEN Graphics. FWC fellers.
At the time my live well was empty. They inquired about my catch, but I did not have anything for them to measure up. Ended the day with three in the well and released 10 all 10 inches and under.
Saw plenty of boats at the end of the canal coming from Herlong Park.

Dang, I didn't know you were out there. Otherwise I woulda shown you were Shu catches them all!

Two "checkers" on the water on Griffin. Wow, I've never seen one in three years here. I've only seen the conservation guys taking surveys on how many we caught. And years past the number was always somewhere around one!

WOW, I'm proud of you Slab, that's the way to do it and before you know you will be catching 2lb fish. I cant believe some of our catch and release is finally catching on, congratulations. Nice catch and report, "you the man".

I've been catching and releasing forever. I got no one in the family except me that eats fish. In fact, wifey used to say, I could go fishing as long as I did not bring any of them stinky fish home. The only reason I've been keeping a few lately is the in-laws are staying with us, and Mom-in-law makes some mean crappie fillets.

How things change. Now wifey fishes from our sea wall and feeds Harry the Heron the small gills she catches, and she does it all by herself. It's shocked me. Never thought I'd see the day. Really, living on the water puts you very in touch with nature. We're loving it. Never gonna live away from the water again, I guarantee.
