Since I have no boat access, I really had the urge to try and bank fish for some crappie with todays warm weather & yesterdays somewhat warm rain. After work, I stopped and got some minnows before making my way to Palestine. I got there around 4 and stayed until 530 just before the big storm started pouring down. And let me tell you, i was working hard for about 30 minutes, moving around and about. trying different color jigs ect. I was really frustrated but i just had the feeling that something good would happen. Little did i know it, I hooked into what i thought was a decent sized LMB, BUT really it was a SLAB, 2lb, Personal Best crappie I've ever caught. & My first crappie of 2014! You can say I was handling that monster like it was my life. If i didn't land it, i wouldve beat myself up for a couple weeks de . I was using a bobby garland baby shad with a pink 1/16 jighead under a bobber 2 feet deep in about 6-9 feet of water i would say. They were hitting the minnows as well at the same depth. Today was about quality not quantity Haha. Had an awesome day on the water! Thanks for taking a look. - Josh



That sandie was 11 inches! look at that monster! Also got a black crappie as well!

Just over 14 in!

Right at 2 lbs!
