Moster Crappie

Dante and I went out for 1-1/2 hours yesterday and he managed to catch 4 crappies.
His first was an absolute beast - 15-1/4"
Weighed 1.8 lbs
The other three were so-so.

I didn't have a hit

Dang thats a goodun!!!! Thats a wall hanger right there!!

He caught it on a minnow, Slag. And I agree, Jerry, it would've looked good on his wall - I'm glad it wasn't important to him (and that may be because he knew it wouldn't happen)

I'm not sure you'd call what we have here a "winter." We got about 4" snow two days before and that's been the 'big' storm - haha. Closed schools down the night before (it was supposed to be up to 8"). It's all gone already. It was mid 40's the day we fished - not bad for Feb 12. All our foul weather gets pushed right up to Nasty

nastygunz · February 14, 2017, 09:24:42 PM

Snow bound,send tp and beer

I really enjoy crappie fishing. Here in WV we have a really good crappie lake, North Bend State Park lake that a friend of mine and I fish every spring. Last spring we took my camper and his boat. Stayed two nights and fished two days. We caught over 100 crappies. Biggest was 14 3/4 long. My buddy takes his deep fryer and we filet the fish, soak them in milk, then bread them with Autry's Fish Fry breading, then drop them into the fryer. Mmmm good!!
