Had some fun yesterday

Meat56 and I headed down to a power plant lake and got into some nice black crappie. We caught them both spider rigging minnows as well as casting jigs. These fish are so thick it amazes me everytime we go there and catch some... We ended up with 51 ranging from 9.5"-14" and had a beautiful weather day to go with it!

Meat56 brought some bacon wrapped smoked crappie with us yesterday and I can't quit thinking about making my own. Definitely the best fish Iv ever eaten, period! Having them cold tastes just as good!! Here is a few pics of the feesh

Makes me happy to see someone doing well, great trip and post.

Thats my home water. way to go bird.

What temp and how long do you smoke them crappie? I'd like to try it with some I have in the freezer.

Well I got a wild hair and fired up the charcoal grill and waited til it got good and hot then breaded my fish n whatever batter u like wrapped it n bacon and tossed it on the grill til the bacon was done. Turned out way betr than I expected. No real secret. I prefer Kentucky kournal flour and a handful of andys Cajun Attachment 228020Attachment 228021
