    Default I hit Beaver Dam today

    I knew it was going to be windy today, and weather.com said it would be slighlty windy and sunny all day. Yeah right hah.
    Well I did have a good crappie run the amount of time I was there. This right here will give you a good idea of how windy it was when I started.

    The crappie in the pictures above was 15 1/2 inches. (citation size is 15 inches or 2 lbs+) I caught another a hair short of 15 inches. You can see it under the large crappie in the last picture. Sorry for the picture sizes, I guess I need some more practice uploading.

    Thanks for the compliments fellas. I got a lot more crappies today than I did at Chicks. Yesterday I was too busy learning how to troll and use artifical lures from Diecutter and shooting the breeze with him. Today at Beaver Dam the wind was insane so I would drift around till I got over some crappies and dropped 2 anchors and just used floats and fished off the side. I did get some blue gills and bass of a pink 1/16 jig and some small crappies. But all the good size slabs were off minnows.

    Nice catch. And yes a little smaller on the pics. Everyone doesn't use large screens.
