Not much to report. Wish I could say I loaded the boat but that would be an April Fool's joke. Ended the day with 5 crappie, 3 ring perch, 2 bass and 7 pickerel. Beautiful day to be out. What fish I did catch were in the very back of coves. All fish caught on jigs tipped with minnows from 3 to 6 feet deep. What little bite there was died after lunch. Biggest crappie was 13", another at 12-3/4", a 12 and 2 @ 10. 3 females, 2 almost spawned out and my smallest one still full. Big ring perch was 12-3/4". Wanted 6 fish to make a meal and that's just what I got. Next time maybe I should say I want enough for a neighborhood fish fry.

Here is the required picture of my hat.

Thanks for the report and congrats on the citation ringer! LCR's a struggle right now, but it will get much better.

Dang IT! Now I may have to change plans!! I know its going to break loose soon, so I was going to LCR tomorrow..
I think the spawn is off on the fish also, last time I was there- one females roe was brite yellow and the other wasn't close to spawn..
(this one was about ready to burst)

Nice going Roy, those are some good looking fish and I'm sure that ringer will taste good.
