That's a nice pile of fillets and nice looking crappie that they came from. The folks that get these must be happier to see you than a kid seeing the ice cream truck! Awesome.
Had a chance to go this morning, I started in the middle lake where I've fishing and the bite was a little slow
so I moved to the big lake, it has deeper water down around the overflow pipe by the dam (20'). Well they were
there and biting. I did good with minnows but great with a jig. The jig was catching bigger fish so I put up the
minnow poles and just fished with the jig.
I ended up catching 45
Here are a few of the bigger ones, over half of the 45 were 12-14"
Here's the finished results, I'll deliver these tomorrow to some of the people I give fish too.

Awesome job BH19!!! What size jig head were you using and what kind of jigs, did they want it slow or were they on the bottom? I fish a place with an outlet pipe in 20 FOW as well, so I hope I can learn a thing or two. Do your ponds stratefy and get a thermal layer in them? The place I fish does and it's usually right at about 10'
I was fishing about 8-10' deep, some hit it on a slow fall but most hit it after it got down and I was barely moving it, maybe a couple of inches at a time. I was fishing with these in the chartreuse.

And these jigs in a 1/16th, they're a little costly but sure hook a fish

Good stuff!! Yep, I really like that shape and size for shooting docks. Same color I was using. Jig heads I had were red with the chartreuse body.
Good job Blackhawk
I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.
