Nice post Skeet, Thanks for sharing and best wishes for your upcoming week of treatments.
But then I usually do anyway. Snuck out this morning cuz I just don’t sleep late no matter what. Got to the ramp just as the tender opened the gate. Slipped in and got to my desired spot after a short run to find the fish in a non feeding mode. Not having anything better to do I decided to stick it out. I pitched a Bobby Garland baby Shad for a short bit and it got bumped once. Went back to a Bitty slab slayer in double silver rainbow and stuck with it after a couple of changes told me they wanted the flashy minnow looking thing. The sun started getting up and the bite picked up about 7:30 and warmed up nice letting me get quite a few fish and had I kept the good ones, mom and I would’ve eaten well. A few gills came to visit, all of them table worthy and lots of fun. Just about 9:30 the bite got painfully slow and the heat got up enough that I wasn’t having fun anymore so off to the house I went. One of my last fish was the best crappie I’ve caught in a while. Hope y’all get out and find a few.
As you can see, not all were big enough for dinner. The cool thing about the little guys was that I was using my new tiny rod, a custom 4’ 3” featherweight. The hits from the small fish were super light and I felt them with no problem. Great sensitivity. The big crappie came on that rod too and took me a bit to get him to cooperate. As usual, they’re all there for the next trip. Thanks for taking a minute to read this.

Some nice ones
The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass alongskeetbum thanked you for this post
It's always fun when your catching. It's more fun to catch them before getting too hot.
