Me and a friend went crappie fishing last night for a little while. The full moon made it nice and bright out and also made the fish hungry. I&#39;m not sure what&#39;s the deal with the crappie but they are in extremely shallow water and aggressive if you can find them. Most were caught swimming dark colored BG&#39;s in 2-6fow. They were clobbering it and then peeling drag and jumping towards deeper water.<br />Most of fish were from 12-14.25in. I caught 5 on consecutive casts over 13in. I think we had 30 keepers out of 50 fish and left the big ones biting. It felt like fishing during the spawn.<br />It was a really fun night other than dealing with ice in the guides.
