Got out this afternoon, same docks as yesterday, same color, same style, ended with 13 keepers and 6 shorts. Water temp avg 55.3 and clear.

Nice Cowboy. You need to host a fish fry to your Alabama C.C brethren before your freezer gives up the ghost.

Haven't been keeping any for myself, been giving away, or letting them go.

Good on you! That's what I mostly do. Congrats on the great catch with a short trip.

I give em away or turn loose too after I filet about 300 of em!

Good job man!

[John Doe]

I'm in that group that really likes to eat them. We don't keep every crappie we catch.. LOL we don't catch that many. Still haven't logged a limit of nice keepers yet. I have a self-imposed slot. We only keep fish at least 10" and will not keep a fish over three lbs. Haven't had to exercise the upper limit yet..haha.

Good report Cowboy

@Jon doe, biggest this winter was 2.13, and back in she went.

[John Doe]

You are exercising your right and I respect that. A 2.13 fish would likely end up in my live well and eventually on a plate. When my freezer is full enough to my standards, I release fish like that.

I release bass even though I like to catch them. They don't appeal to my appetite.
