Mosquito Lake - May 28th

A buddy and I went over to Squito this past Sunday and hammered em'!

We had the pattern figured out by 7am and by 11:30am we had boated 137 crappies. We filleted 93, threw 20 in his pond, and released 24. The fishin' was absolutely incredible!

Here are the pics:

Jigs mostly. 20 FOW, suspended between 12 and 13 feet.

So I assume you must be using a slip bobber to suspend a jig at 12 - 13 feet?

I found plenty of dinks at Cowanesque over the weekend but not too many slabs. The dinks seemed to eat anything that hit the water, but I only caught a 12-13 incher when I changed color jig - then only one or two until I changed color again. I know they were there, rather shallow, full of eggs yet,
not exactly a feeding frenzy though.

Had a black bear 20 yards from the kayak and luckily he stayed on shore!

The fish were suspended between 12 and 13 ft, not the jigs.
