• New PB crappie!

    Caught this big ol' slab last week on a gray ghost hand-tied jig, at Lathem reservoir. 2.47 lbs, over 16". Caught 3 over 2 lbs that day (all released - I only keep crappie if between 11 and 14 inches). Spring is nearly here, and the big slabs are biting. Hard to go to Lanier when this little lake near my house produces some big fish, including some big shellcrackers - my favorite. Unfortunately, the lake isn't open early or late, only 8-5 until April, then 8-8. Electric-only, all bass must be released, state limits for other fish.

      [Great looking fish, thanks for releasing the big one's. I do the same with the big fish, especially when they are loaded with eggs.

      WOW that is just incredible! That's how you do it, release the bigun's and keep those 10 to 12 inch perfect filet size to eat.
