missed it by 1/32 on stockton

[beagle man]

Had 8 crappie that measured 9and 31 /32, one side of the tail touched one did not, clunk over the side they go. started out in 30 ft of water over brush, not much luck, moved to more brush, same depth. no luck, fished bridge pier no luck, so by now it is 9 AM. and I have not had a bite, got me a sausage/egg samich, bottle of water and turned on the side scan, on the second cove big ball of shad, dropped the trolling motor and open water two pole slow troll, keeper right off the bat. then 3 small ones, then keeper, this went on for 3 hours, ended up with 6 keepers, 3 to one ratio.

all in 20 ft of water
swimming minnow/silver black flake
orange head no. 4 bronze hook (home pored)
east wind 83 dg water,clear.
wish them 8 had of been a tiny bit longer. just dont want to take a chance me and green jeans dont see eye to eye on the measuring.... great day on the water.

Nice catch! Way to stay after them. Fish look like they had enough to drink, they are all laying on their side, that's what the crown does best.
