That is one killer crappie for sure.......are you saying you caught 45 that were all that big?
From a small hump in Truman in 1996 came this 18" crappie, along with 45 others just like it in size. Some ( one or two on here at least) doubt such feat could occur. It doesn't take a master fisherman, or a amateur to catch such size crappie. Just the masterful mind to think where they will be on a given day in May.
I could upload 45 individual photo's for viewing, but due to time and space, this one will do. All you have to do is multiply this one times 45 and you will get the exact size and shape.
There was a photo on the wall of the bait station at Osceola, Mo.. with all 45 laid out with a 3" yard stick as proof. The yard stick belong to the owner of the bait station. The bait station is (was) on the west side of Missouri highway 13. The 7' under water hump is located some two miles north of St. Clair county highway C where it crosses the arm of Truman lake. It's up to the masterful minded individual to find the rare spot.

Don't bother to post if all you want to tell me is that I am a pain in the a**, my wife has you beat 9 times to hell.
Since it's getting dicey here concerning "my hump", I thought I would contribute.
The brutish calico should legally be measured with the mouth completely shut. I must confess that I wear corrective lenses, but that would put the fish at 17 inches. None-the-less, a Roger Clemens crappie.

MOUTH CLOSED!?!?!?!? I suppose you would balk at the use of a rolling pin to "stretch" a fish too?! C'mon, how else can I ever expect to catch an 18" crappie?
I am just pullin' your leg.:D
nice fish, no manner how it was measured.
that is a good fish
that there is a pig! congrat's on the catch
why do today what you can put off til tomorrow, go fishing instead!!!
What happened to the pic?ba you must have taken it off last night so that means you also read my question to you.......an answer would be nice,i want the whole story every detail of it if you can remember because that has to be the single greatest day of crappie fishing in the state of Missouri all time and since you were the guide on this day that 3 men made a miracle happen it looks like you'd love telling the story repeatedly......come on with it lets hear how we all can make our own dreams come true.

From canepoles posting on the OT board about wine or water one would kind of think bacrappie has been drinking a lot of water. :D
