Nice haul.
Man that's killer I have been wanting to see some pic's. Congrat's again.
That's one heck of a mess of fish. I will be happy if I can do half that good when we come down.
great catch loks like alot of skinning and eating! Billy
Lot's of good eating and lot's of work cleaning.
very nice looking fish and good job finding them
not on a bad note, but do people really need to take home that many at one time
take me to the doctor my arms are broken WOW I'm just glad I don't have to clean - um
I'm speechless......I had my doubts when you posted those numbers but proof is in the pic.....WOW, I'm very impressed!
This is the reason I hate to post pics sometimes, but I do understand your question. My dad and I actually helped another very nice man clean every single fish in the picture and didn't keep a single fillet for ourselves (quite a bit of work, but we don't mind at all). His family really likes fish and we take him once a year to catch and clean enough for his family to enjoy for a while. This fish are not wasted and I don't see the difference in keeping 20 fish for 20 days or 400 in one day. I don't really enjoy cleaning fish, but when I decide to clean them I catch and clean as many as possible and release them the remainder of the year when my freezer has enough for 5 or 6 meals for friends and family. I also take fish to some guys at work once or twice a year as you will see from this weekends pic. This is the best I can answer your question.Quote:

where and how did you catch em if you don't mind sharing
I caught them this weekend in 6' to 7' of water on a bream reaper drug along the bottom. Most people I've seen are fishing the edge of the brush and I'm fishing 75' to 100' out from it, but haven't been able to find the shellcracker but heard they are 3' to 3.5' behind the buckbrush.Quote:

If I could kill six I would do it and we eat every bit of it.
That is a huge pile of fish!!! Congrats on the catch!

Caseydrew you are the man. You do not need to defend any pictures you post here. I enjoy them greatly and showed a lot of my friends. There will always be people who are jealous. If weren't for guys like you taking up the slack for others the bluegill would take over and over populate. Keep up the good fishing and please don't stop posting pictures. You have answered some of my questions in the past and I want to thank you for your help.
Nice Mess Of Fish... We Head Down For The Crappie.. Maybe Ought To Head Down For The Gills But We Are Hooked On Reelfoot For The Gills Good Or Bad... You Definitely Know That Lake From All The Slab And Gill Pictures...
Nothing wrong w/ Reelfoot for the gills........one of the best lakes I've ever fished.Quote:
