How about starting a big fish picture thread for the IL board, some of the other states have a sticky and people post pics of various fish. Does not have to be Crappie, what does everyone think?

This Flathead was caught on an 11' B&M pole, 10# test Mr Crappie mono using a 1/16oz black/chart jig and from a skinny 14' jon boat. It wouldn't fit in the net.

16 inches....2lbs or so
32oz poweraide bottle next to it
Here ia a nice saugeye from Pecatonica River last fall. She is still swimming.
Not huge, but not too bad for this year. Also, to add some perspective, I'm 6'6", so the fish are a little bigger than they look in the pics.

They're still danged impressive. Too bad they came from Missouri. This first pic was a scan of an article in the Missouri Conservationist mag a few years ago. I think the 'undisclosed' lake was Honeywell in North Central MO.
It's almost unreal and I'm SURE I'da done one of those 'stringer mounts' after a day like this.

The next were a couple photos takes of a MO conservation worker after doing some netting surveys (for Muskie if I remember) but they caught some of these rascals. Same lake I think...

and the same fish on a scale. Isn't that just a freaking hog???
