Ez the thread wasn't about how many i managed or how fast i mananged to ketch them sir ,I guess I should explain what is truly legendary about it
the fact that this many crappie stayed still in this large of numbers biting like crazy for this long of a period of time .I have seen some fish over the years hang around and get caught like that , but I never found crappie stacked up and biting that good for that long in one spot thumb

That wasn't my question. My question was aren't you ashamed for getting these folks all riled up?

And it was intended to be satirical, as you have done nothing to be ashamed of, in my opinion at least.

(satire definition. A work of literature that mocks social conventions, another work of art, or anything its author thinks ridiculous)(added: I don't think my posts are works of literature but I do think what is going on is ridiculous)

And yes, I have seen crappie bite like that and hang around for hours biting like that. It was in the 80's, at Pat Cleburne at the dam.

And when I fished Fork back then I would tie up to certain bridge pillars and then spend the entire day at the one spot catching crappie and bluegill. I did not catch the crappie in the numbers you did but I would catch a hundred or more during a day. I had no problem culling a limit each time I fished there plus I would catch an ice chest full of blue gill for a neigbhor who preferred them over any other fish.

Ketchn thank you for the information in your post and photos of your outing. You deserve to hit a jackpot like that as your persistence paid you back in volume. Thank you again for scouting an area and providing that information to a community forum for others to use. You undoubtedly confirmed there are some sows in that river and numbers to boot.

I tip my hat to you for going well above and beyond the seemingly "required" amount of information that this forum needs to be provided in order to get a congrats! So once again CONGRATS!


fishing without beer is like,.umm...hunting without beer!
