went out with a buddy today before the rain and ended up catching my largest crappie to date.
didnt get a chance to properly measure but was easily pushing 2 lbs for sure and was atleast 8" long.
after a couple pics back in she went.





kept a couple smaller ones for the grandparents.(these were the average size of the crappie being caught)



Goodluck to everyone this weekend!

[balapickerel]

were the swirls just for fun or are you trying to keep the spot a secret?

[LICENSETOPIN]

for both? lol this spot isnt so much as secret as the paris hilton sex tape lol
i just dont need 50 pms from locals pissed off about posting backgrounds... more of a precaution lol

Nice fish! I glad to hear that she went back in that is a sign of a real sportsmen. I was out at keswick fri and I caught one about the same size and put it back as well. Sound's like thing's are starting to heat up with the crappie

Congrats, I THINK I know where that is, even with the swirls .
But congrats again! And come to think about it, why do I not go there at the right time....EVER?

^^ haha you guys are too funnyyy, but yes the slabs are starting to come in.
today almost seemed like it would be a bad day to fish, less active fish hitting and most were smaller than past weeks. just before it started to rain i set my bait a whole foot deeper and bam there she was...

**fish were caught on assorted tubes but the one slab hit white

Good job LICENSETOPIN, I think I know where this place is.. =)

I was at the same spot last week and caught a whole bunch of small ones.

awesome work out there!!!!
it's definitely a lot longer than the 8" you suggested, but also nowhere near 2 lbs.
great fish nonetheless!!! and huge compared to all the small ones i've seen pulled out of there...

Hahaha... i feel the same way!!!
If they are in, they'll be in there for a while.
still a week left before everything to the east opens up...plenty of time!

Although I've been really itching to fish the last few days ............

Nice Crappie`s, and I even like the swirls...without giving the spot away, in which body of water are you fishing there? Not that I can get too it anyways...but I like to dream.

Simcoe... the other great lake
It's where most of the no closed season crappies are being caught right now. Lots of spots you can fish for them and other panfish. Unless you're from the west where there are other bodies of water with healthy populations.
