Well March is finally here and along with late February comes all the last minute viral complications in life . So the kid gets ill to beat the band with a new virus that lasts 7 to 10 days and mimics the flu but lasts longer .Then the wife gets a 2 day bug that is just flat nasty as heck and then finally a week later I get the 2 day virus that makes you want to cry as well . Oh lets not stop there why not let the wife get the regular flu all this last week and maybe ole Ketchn can just go on a never ending month long no ketchn vacation ! :banghead
My wife was finally a little better yesterday enough that I slipped out to Ez's slip for a few hours thank goodness, you see one of the men I met there has been blowing up my phone with stringers of crappie this last week saying they are thick under the dock and asking when I was going to return .
Anyway the start was slow but it ramped up well late morning and I left to go home nefore lunch .Ez was on them and so was I and we had a pretty good time . Mind you I was there to kill 2 birds with one stone and wanted to play "VIDEO" crappie ketchn with his new panoptics thingee he rigged portable to use on the dock . The lithium batteries he needed didn't show and I didn't get to try some pac man ketchn but to be sure I bet its gunna be interesting as heck.
Anyway the particulars on the fish went like this , close to the bottom and several bit really hard and most had the jig down good in the mouth . 14 to 20 foot of water on cover in most cases and the largest fish I hooked bought jerked the pole out my hand while we were shooting the breeze before I left .Man did bertha mean business ….:Rofl
the females are swollen up big and the vents look ready and the males fish are getting some dark fins on them . Released all the fish we caught and had a great time even though it was pretty cold and unpleasant weather .
Ed said you ketched the littlest one and I said yep and I think the biggest and lots of inbetweenies to …. :Rofl
stay tuned yawl and for sure KABOOM :highfive
