<br /> Lauren has all week off and today she said she wanted to go fishing. Of course I was more than happy to take her. <br /> Got to try out my new t bar rod holder system from Cabelas and troll for some crappie. Which by the way worked great for what I bought it for. <br /> The first 20 minutes were red hot. We only trolled 3 rods and I could hardly keep em in the water without fish on them. I use 2 jigs on each rod and she caught several 2 at a time. We&#39;d get one on and I would take the rod out and hand it to her and she reeled em in all by herself. Before she could sit back down I&#39;d be handing her another rod. Don&#39;t know exactly how many we caught but would guess close to thirty. I guess we hit it at the right time cause after about 20 minutes not another fish, like somebody flipped a switch. She insisted we keep some for dinner even though I had some thawing out already. One for her one for her brother and one for her sister since they couldn&#39;t go.(she&#39;s very thoughful) <br /> 9 feet of water various colors and jigs.
