First intentional crappie
Believe it or not, I just caught my first intentional crappie yesterday. I've caught a few others before, but not when specifically targeting them. No...I'm unfortunately not 10 years old...I'm just a late starter to Crappie fishing.
Big thanks to a random guy named Jim who asked me how I was doing (which wasn't great...all small bluegill, no crappie or slab bluegill) and then told me a better place to go, then followed me across the lake and got me in the spot and gave me some simple pointers to end the day on a positive note.
I know this isn't rocket science, and many on here have caught crappie in the thousands.... but for me yesterday was a very exciting fish #1. I'm heading out on the lake again today (70 degrees today!) to brave the rain with my 6 year old to hopefully have some good success. If my kid gets his first Crappie today, I'll post a pic.
