Name: 31013crappie 002.jpg Views: 367 Size: 55.8 KBMy daughter and I went out late this afternoon on a lake I grew up on in VB. Steady, aggressive bites on small minnows the whole time we were out. I'm guessing these fish are close to spawing as nearly every fish was getting fat with roe. The lake is pretty shallow and the water is cold but the fish were active. No slow takers today. Caught 17 in two hours, most this size with a couple of slobs caught early in the trip. All released since they looked close to spawning. My daughter did most of the catching and as you can tell by the smile she was having a good time with it.
