Alright guys tried some crappie at tillery yesterday, but ended up getting into a bunch of the white perch, had fun catching them, then I dropped my jigging spoon down and ended up hooking something a tad bit bigger, this was caught on 6 lb test and a 7 light action took about 15 mins and some help to get it in the net but we got it done. Weighed 24 lbs 12 Ozs
That's a knot tester. Congrats
No doubt,really couldn't believe i got it in.Quote:

Oh yea the rod and drag done all of the work there wasn't much reeling. Lucky for me my wife and father in law were out letting my son ride the tube and just happen to see me fighting it and came and help me net it.Quote:

Those tillery flatheads will hit anything. Catch quite a few pulling cranks for carppie near Woodrun.
Man that is a $16 micro series from Walmart and mr.crappie 6 lb line,and yes I had a kast master spoon i put one size bigger hook on it , I have had those rod holders for years I could not tell you where I got them, there is probably 1.5" in between prongs.Quote:
