Cracking the dawn at first light we were off to find the elusive crappie fish.<br />Skeeter had told me this was his situation and I wanted to help him get some dinner so his wife wouldn&#39;t get on him emoLaugh <br /><br />A fun guy to fish with, I enjoyed taking him to his first stop, the &quot;C&quot; dock.<br />We caught a few and he was getting the hang of it when the fish locked down emoAngler <br /><br />So we moved to a super secret open water spot and found them deep.<br />We caught a few more until we wore out our welcome and took our little dog and pony show to the new dock.<br />Skeeter makes a good fishing partner as he is open to new ideas.<br />So we tried a few new places with only a little luck, but we were catching fish so that was good.<br /><br />We knocked off as we started to chase trashy green fish with very little success at around 2:30 or so.<br />We took pics and bragged on the nice slabs and the soon to be happy wife and said good bye emoThumbsup emoToast <br /><br />Thanks for a fun day, Skeeter.<br />If you want, we can try again sometime!<br /><br />30 crappie with 13 11&#43; keepers and a LM a spot and a SM with a bluegill and a yeller to round out the bag!<br />Count was mostly 12 and purple mist with and without the tail light and my partner loved the pearlescence split tail on mostly 32 and 24 heads<br /> emoCool
