Caught 32 today.

My buddy Dudley and I took the day off Friday, we just couldn't stand it that the conditions were gonna be so perfect. We didn't find a bunch early, but it didn't take long to find a good pattern. Caught em in 13 to 16 FOW fishin at 12 to 13ft. Best bait today was Beaver Bottom baits in black and chartreuse. Knew we were close to our 2 man limit around 3 and called it a day. Counted them at the ramp and had 62 fish over 10 inches. Biggest fish was 2lbs with another at 1.75. Sure was fun day fishin with a close friend.

It was a gorgeous day yesterday on Oologah! The fishing was good too! A buddy and I started fishing around 2pm. He could only fish for three hours. We caught twelve (11 keepers) in the time frame. I went back after dropping him off at the dock and ended the day with 33 (only three were smaller than 10" - AMAZING ratio!). They were anywhere from 10-20 ft (see pics of my graph at a couple locations). At one point my buddy said "I'm going to drop down past the little ones and go for the big ones". Just then, I hooked into the biggest fish of the day at right about 10'! He quickly changed his mind. We did very well double rigged with 1/4 jigs on the bottom (Thunder Bug Beaver Bottoms or Bluegrass Baby Shad Swim'R) tipped with a minnow, and a wire hook and minnow about a foot above that. I also did very well with the three inch Daddy Shad bait (monkey milk color) that I got from Crappie University (Does anyone know where to buy more of those?), by itself going deep into the brush. Some were spilling eggs on my boat after we landed them. All were released.
Here's some pics from the day.

Hey where did you buy your counter clicker at. I've been looking for one of those.

Looks like a water spot on the screen. OR a full moon 3' below. OR an alien orb that is tracking TC wondering why he's not fishing for Blues.

DRMDR, I bought the clicker at Bass Pro. It's nice to have. When I started fishing for crappie, George (aka Crappie Ciller) said I needed one so that I didn't have to guess how many I caught. He likes exactness . TC, Reaper's right, that's a water spot. It does look like there are some crappie suspended 5'-7' on the bottom graph. You can also see my bouy line going down into the pile. My finder is a Lowrance HDS 7 Gen 2 w Structure. It's been great for crappie fishing. Love being able to go over brush and see exactly where the fish are on it, or if they are there at all.
