I put a hand control trolling motor on the ole 16 foot flat bottom about a month ago and decided to really test her out this weekend. Saturday I fished bluffs, docks, and a couple of offshore structures. I ended up with 42 crappie, 2 brim, and 2 small spots. Most fish were caught on a 1/16 bg shad blue ice and patriot with a taillight on a 6 to an 8 count. 15 of the 42 were over 13 inches and 3 being over 14 inches. Now on to Sunday..........I decided to fish a blowdown and caught 21 crappie with 15 being keepers. Today I used a pa albino shad with a taillight on a 6 count. I only got to fish for about two hours today because the wind picked up and scooted my flat bottom all over the lake. emoBang I did end up having some help transporting and counting the fish. emoLaugh emoCool "They wanted to make sure I could count" emoLaugh
