This fish has been frozen, thawed and I washed all the slime off to skin and THEN I put it on the scales!!!!!!!!

I have caught my share of 2#s with a 2.86# best...........but NEVER a 3# yet and this dude brings in 2!!!!!!!!!!!


Granger record broke!!!! One here, one there!!!!!!! Have had a fish come in every day for almost 2 weeks and 2 fish on Thursday, Friday and Saturday!!!! Good year to be crappie fishing in Tejas!!!

If someone could put one of those monsters in a bathtub, I might be able to catch it after say maybe 2-3 days.

I know I'd try real hard. And maybe not drown while I'm at it. roflmao

Buddy in Louisiana put a big Ol flathead in the bathtub while he went to his shift at the papermill!! His wife wasn't too happy she couldn't take a bath when she got home from work and he had forgotten to tell her!! I wasn't even with him and somehow I got a call and blamed for it!! I had to go clean a fish and the tub for a fish I had nothing to do with!! Figured he wouldn't want the belly meat so that came home with me!! grill

Banger you got to hold more 3 pounders than anyone I know.

You missed a heck of a opportunity on April 1st to pull the wool over our eyes with all them 3's you got stack up. Just saying.

One day, one of these days.

Congrats, a 3+ lb crappie is a true trophy.... thumb I didn't weigh 2 fish over 18" inches last yr, biggest we've ever caught. I have know idea what a fish that long and thick would weigh. They were caught in November on Fork, this yr on my berkley scales we've had 2.14 0z. 2.6oz all off the dock in 6' foot.. As you claim, it's been a good yr for size grin numbers too.

I WILL be going with you on my next fish. I have a big striper at Fish Scale Taxidermy in the Waco area. It's been almost three years and I'm not happy. There is no reason for that at all. Do you do replicas too?
