Nice mess of crappies. Enjoy the fish fry.
My brother and I went out this past Friday evening on a lake up by Warsaw. It was pretty chilly (we were wearing heavy jackets and long pants), with the wind blowing hard out of the east, making white caps on the water. We caught 48 in an hour. Not much size. But since we are hosting a fish fry this weekend, we were looking for numbers. We were using minnows under a bobber set one foot deep in 12 feet of water off some lilly pads. The best part was, we also caught several fat perch that ran about 12 inches long, all by accident. I had thrown my empty hook out of the other side of the boat to untangle a rats nest on my reel and my bobber went down. It was a nice perch. Thinking it was a fluke, I did it again and my bobber went down again...another nice perch. Repeated this several times. My brother tried it and got nothing. I was using red hooks and he was using gold hooks. We had to leave because the wind picked up and it was almost dark. We went out the next morning to the same spot. It was a beautiful sunny morning. Never got one other bite.
