Anybody hear about the 19 incher caught at Smithville????

[claybuster]

Talked to one of the Clay Co. Park rangers today....... Apparently some lucky fisherman caught a 19" crappie at the Little Platte marina, fishing off the riprap. Said it weighed 3.5#, now I know there will be some skeptics out there so when I get the pics I will post them. As for my own fishing on Smithville, I can't seem to buy a keeper the last few weeks so what's a guy to do???? Keep fishing until the ducks start flying!!!

It's not unusual to have a few really large crappie caught at Smithville each year. I've not been fortunate enough to catch a huge one, but did lose about an 18 incher at the boat one day.

Now Beagle you know I wouldnt lie. I know for sure cause I seen the fish. Not 100% IT CAME FROM lOZ, BUT THE BAITSHOP was right there. I have no idea where Smithville is. The baitshop was in Osage Beach on 54 by the state park. Call them and ask em.
