ARE YOU SURE ?

[Ketchn]

" You actually ketched a crappie " me
him "yes i am sure it was a crappie "
"send me a photo " me
him "phone was in the truck " !
" Are you sure ? " me
him "YES" !
"I will be there in 15 to 20 minutes " !!! me
then he sends me a big ole kitty fish selfie ?
But onward I drove , up and down them big hills off in the middle of no where .
left turn , right turn , on and on down the dirt roads , finally found him at high noon .
what a fabulous adventure yawl ....neither of us ever been there .
he got permission to fish this little spot in the wooded hills WAY off the paved venue , long forgotten it seems.
I know the folks that gave him permission too and so off we went with myself ,my wife and of course mini KABOOM to meet up and see said "crappie" .
we struggled to ketch fish in the clear water and bright sunshine . some of the typical farm pond sunfish and something that bought jerked the pole out of my hand and escaped . he kept saying for sure he ketched 2 crappie before we got there !
and then ......
K A B O O M ! BIG ole slab Mohawk gets landed !!
Then yet another not racing stripe that looked like its twin !
Then my wife managed a small mohawk as well .
Mini KABOOM only managed to ketch sunfish and it was hot and the bite was tough in such clear water in the bright of the day .
I imagine some time in the future we will return to the middle of nowhere in more favorable fish ketchn conditions , but as of now .....
YES I AM SURE IT WAS A CRAPPIE !
KABOOM is the word yawl

Looks like crappie to me. :rolleyes: Nice catch. Thanks for sharing this fishing report and pictures.

[SuperDave336]

Oh yeah, those are some good ones for sure. Pretty sure those are crappie too.....

Wow, that was out there. Needed your GPS to find that spot! Easy to see those fish haven’t been pressured. I even saw those wind turbines way off in the distance. Thanks for the ride along!

I am sure glad all the asphalt leads us to water and dirt roads somewhere. If you took the dirt road you had a great trip.

I love the way that you can paint a picture with your words Mark. God has richly blessed you with many talents. Kaboom is truly the word. I am sure that I am not the only one who is blessed by your stories and adventures.
