Default Caught Fish Off of Boo Condos!

Over the weekend I caught several crappie off of some giant bamboo condos I had dropped in 18ft of water. Most of the fish were 8-9 inches and a few were keepers. Hopefully with some more time, some bigger fish will move in. These condos have only been in the water a few weeks. But it was sure fun sitting over them and dropping a jig down and watching them attack it. I plan to make as many of them as I can.

The condos are between 8-10ft tall and probably extend some 20ft in diameter.

Thats right but the only thing is for the last couple I have put out they have brought in plenty of fish just not the size I'm looking for. But I will take those because any fish is better than no fish.

I put out 10 of the mats in 7'-9' water and 10 of the bucket type in 18'-25' water, about a month ago. Haven't fished them yet. Will try them when the rain stops.

I can't wait to go to the lake with new 997 and take yall a snapshot of what I put in last weekend. A 200 gal plastic tote tank with galvanized cage around it. Put bamboo out all four sides about 12 foot long and 2 inch pvc pipe sticking up about 8 to 10 foot. Wish I'd seen the bucket leaves Ernest put on his but too late. It's in 18 foot on bank of creek.
