The fish we lost would have filled our limits. The fish were sporatic at best you would catch five or six then you would have a long dry spell, then you would catch five or six more. I think we were just catching them as a school would move in then move out. Would post picture but don't really know how to post pictures from my Iphone. We had a good time and caught some really nice crappie to boot.

Figured out how to upload picture of crappie.

I must be doin something wrong. By 9am I can't catch a thing and hang it up until abou 4. Then I start catching again.

I see you wound up with a good mess of fish. Sometimes you have to work for 'em, and it looks like your presistance paid off. Congrats.

Great catch! I'm going to try them out tommorrow. Were you guys catching them deep? And were y'all jigging or had minnows working?

they were not that deep, caught them around the bank actually, caught them on jigs. Just basic colors, had to hunt for a color that that they wanted.

i tell ya those crappie sure fried up good lastnight...were gonna have to get together again over new years and do it again....this time with a dip net

Sounds like you guys had to work for them, but that's ok when you landed what you'll got, planning on going Fri morning could use some tips, any tips is better than the ones I know!!
