    Default Unbelievable day


    I had caught my limit of 15 crappie and was culling fish 32 minutes after parking my truck at the ramp. I don't know how long it actually took from the first cast but, it couldn't have taken 10 minutes. Had I not crows nested my line on my float it wouldn't have taken that long. I culled until all 15 crappie were over 11.5 inchs and still got to the ramp before 10:30. I must have caught 60 keepers and amazingly only had about half a dozen that didn't measure. I believe that I'll keep the location to myself but, it's safe to say it was in the southeastern part of the state. It was a day to remember for sure.

    I wanted to go so bad today, just can't chance getting sick fishing in the rain. Good job, I love those days.

    Sounds great. It's been a long time since I've had a day like that. I can find them but can't put the hook in their mouth...lol.

    glad it happened to someone.
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    I couldn't stand it so I went back again today. I limited out in about 30 minutes and culled until all were over 11 inchs. I "played" around and tried some new things until I got bored and left at 11:30.
