Anyway, the small mouth were hungry. Drop shot with a little floating jig (Cowboy's puggly perch bug) with a bit of worm. Nothing huge, but lots of fight. The best catch of the day...(drumroll)...on a about my 3rd cast I hooked a monster crappie. At least a monster for Utah and definitely a monster for me. (I am doing a fist pump in air right now.)  Great to get out. Perfect temp, a little breeze kept it cooler. We were off the water by 9am. There was a pretty good hatch going on right at sunup, but as usual, Cowboy forgot flies. Something was surfacing like crazy for them, but couldn't hook anything. Very strange fishing year, but we will persevere. It's been awhile since we've done a video, I know you've missed us, so hear you go....

At the risk of starting a conversation that I will have to moderate - cookie measures small - dont take the bait I just offered - please ----

I used the photo she posted in the BFT Grand Slam contest for this crappie that has her tag in the photo. The tag is 6" I just checked it.

Based on that her crappie is 14-16 inches long. You can check the photo from the contest and see if I am doing that wrong

Her bass were also bigger, but I dont have a reference to measure them by. No pigs but not dinks either. We did catch dinks also but did not put in the video.
