While bass fishing, we had caught several crappie on a full size crankbait and when I kept setting the hook on a senko and missing she followed up with a jig and came out with what I at first thought was a bass. Never seen one that big and doubt I ever will again. Just shy of 18" - she could put her whole hand in its mouth. Unfortunately I'm not sure the picture even does it justice. Released healthy to keep that genepool going.

Now thats a once in a lifetime crappie, if you can go to a good taxidermist and have a replica made for her, every time she looks at it she will remember that day. Very nice
If it was easy, everyone would do it

Great fish. I would also have a replica made but I don't have much to worry about. You have to catch one first.

Thanks - been thinking about a replica. Based upon your responses, I think I will. She'll like that. What makes it more special was that she was home for Spring Break and WANTED to fish with dad.
