Wow Jim! An 18-inch Crappie! Can't wait for your report and Photos. Hope you have an excelle3nt Trip with great catching success! Go get 'em !
2 weeks i am heading to Southern IL for my annual crappie trip.We literally catch and mostly release 100s a day.All the big girls go back.We keep most fish 10 to 12.We usually get a few 16-18 inches or more every year ,they get their picture taken and quickly released.This fishery has only gotten better now that they put a few restrictions in place.Used to be a great bluegill lake,lots of fish closed to a pound but no limits and bed fishing pretty much wiped them out.The crappies have filled that niche tho.
Crappie and bluegill should be spawning here real soon.
All good sizes! !Nice work Mikey!
As Jethro would say, "that's a heap of good eatin'."
