We put in at CF about daylight and headed out for some crappie catchin' emoSmile It was a beautiful day but got a little hot by noon when we were getting back on the trailer, emoSun Lots'a sport boats and seadoo's out today, emoDoh <br />The catch was all crappie with only one other which was a big drum that I couldn't get to the boat and finally pulled off about 10 feet out. He looked to be around 15 or 20 lbs, pretty big emoFish <br />The final count was 25 crappie but we only kept 6 for the grease, the rest we threw back but most were less than our 11" minimum for the day. No TARP's today but it was fun.<br />Temp was 81*-85* depending upon where you fished. Count was mostly 12 early but as the sun got higher it went to a 20. Most caught on crystal S/P Bobby Garland Shad. Minnows of all sizes are schoolin' up and lots of them emoRolleyes The predator fish have plenty to eat, emoThumbsup
