Can't count this one

I have 43 left to catch, and can not get them to cooperate, caught this cat first. Only two crappie, and a lot of baby bass. Bait is several feet thick in all my haunts.

Even a soft boot can't slow you down! You will make it, hang in and keep fishing!

I bet that was a fight to remember!! You’ll make your goal, keep after it.

pretty soon the crappie will be all over that deep water brush you sank recently just waiting for winter to set in.
you didnt forget to set out them brush piles along the dam right ?
