Got the call last night ....Dude wanna hit the lake.
So we hit it and we hit it hard.There's a good 6-7 inches of ice so we doubled our ice in the last 3 days.
Looking like good ice making weather ahead too.
Saw some permanents hauled out today on 4 wheelers even.

So getting back to the fishing.Dude was keeping...I was not.
Here's a few of the mid sizes he kept for his limit.


We caught over 50 crappies today in about 24 fow.
The bite was fast then slow.
It pretty much cycled all day.They'd stack up and not hit then they'd come through and drill you.
We tossed several that would have made a great dinner.

I caught a few very nice respectable slabs...


Rick did too.



Here's another eater for sure.


Once Rick had his most of his limit the bite really picked up about noon.
The sun came out and we were smokin!!!

Here's some videos of the day.
There's 2 in there that went close to 15",watch for them.

You just can not keep them if you expect to keep catching those quality fish,plus now that guy can get even bigger.

I just hope that mule did not get a good look at me.
It's so hard to sneak up on them once they get your number!
