Good day. Shame you didn't get the picture of the big one. But you got the memory.
I went out on a kayak in a small Pennsylvania pond expecting to catch bass, but after no bass and seeing some Bluegill. I tied on a 1/32 Chartreuse Marabou jig and caught my PB White Crappie (15 inches). I then decided to go get my camera, the bite wasn't as good as before but I still caught some good sized gills and crappie.
The first pictured Gill was only about 7 inches but was easily 3/4 pound, not sure when the spawn up there is, but she looked pregnant. One of the Crappie was a female, but didn't look pregnant.
Check out the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvdfyQZ8U70

Those small ponds will spoil ya! I grew up on a farm that had several ponds that were stocked with Bass and Catfish. One was full of 8-10 lb Bass. I chased them on big lakes for several years after that, and only caught one in the 8lb range.
