So I was at Cedar Creek jigging for crappie today out by the dam. This big guy was hungry and gobbled it up. Brought him in on a 4 foot micro rod and spinning reel with 6 pound test. Yeah, it took what seemed like 30 minutes to get him in. He was around 9 pounds. I put him back for you guys to catch.
