Fishing 2-20-09 with minnows. Caught 9 nice crappie from 10 ½ - 14 ½ inches. Only one throw-back. Also released a small blue cat and a small bass. Fish fry Sunday for extended family. Grandson says “YES”!!
Half had not fully-developed eggs. Largest one actually took some line. I probably lost 7 or 8 that were hooked but got off. I missed 4 or 5 other real good bites.
Everyone is looking forward to eating some delicious crappie tomorrow. We’re tired of all the trout from last summer and need a break. You think 30 crappie for 12 people will be enough? Plus fries, pintos, and corn-on-the-cob. YUM-YUM! I guess if I have to I can break out some more trout if that’s not enough.
that kid looks stoked. love to see the smile on the little squids. my hats off to you for takin the tikes. Good mess, heard the white bass are runnin in the nueces river real strong now
