Spring limit Crappies


Recommended Posts

Wow this forum is telling us zilch, zero, nada, goose egg. People go to the trouble of logging on and then tell you nuttin'-

Water temp., depth, bait, give a caucasian something!

If you are catching something say something, nobody is asking for coordinates.

th64,there's nothing in the the forum rules saying i have to give info out, i just like to show my catch and be done with it,every lake is diffrent,so giving the water temp,fow, or what bait or jig i was using doesnt matter.Your either catching them or your not,you either know how to find them or you dont,but if you need some info here you go,3 to 5 fow, water temp was 49 degrees, was using crappie minnow with a tru glo white flu flu, with a slow retrive,they were in the pockets in between the cabbage.Sorry guys for the un natural way of the limit of crappies pic i took.

Never said you broke a rule-thanks for the info-you learn stuff and you get better at your sport-isnt that what the site is for? Or where you born knowing that in early spring the best thing to use is a tru-glow white flu flu?

i dont think anyone should have to say what lake they fish or river. it is however nice to share information on depth,tactics, and baits used. there are some anglers new at fishing in general and there are others willing to always learn new things. honest information is always welcome. good luck.

I bet there would be none of this nonsense if that picture wasn't taken down(Which I still don't understand It was just AndersonOutdoors with a limit of nice fish next to a tree! Anyways, thanks for the Post AndersonOutdoors!

This is directly from the forum policy everyone agrees to before they are a registered member.

You agree to use the following guideline with respect to fish pictures: We're looking for fish pictures in good taste that encourage selective harvest principles, so the fish picture rule is as follows: Fish pictures must at least appear to be in a natural setting where the fish was caught. They must not look frozen, stiff, bloodied or like they were just poured out of a bucket. No pictures with alcohol beverage containers, cigarettes, stringers or fish in a bucket are allowed. Pictures of fish mounts, fish inside a fish house and live-release tournament pictures are OK as well. No other dead fish pictures are allowed.

I thought that it was a nice limit of crappies. Only thing, I would have had them fileted out before taking their picture. I love seeing all the pictures of fish and deer but you'll never see mine, unless someone else shows them. I used to get limits like that before they put experimental slots on the lake. Just a fact, didn't filet one crappie last year. Didn't fish as much as usual but they went somewhere.

Here is an example. I went through my computer and found the only limit pic i have ever posted. Even though the fish are starting to get glossy eyed and that slimy look, I arranged them on the dock, made sure some water was in the background, and took it from a distance as not to show how dead they really were. It is just a lot easier to simply take a quick pic right after you catch it, the fish is alive, in the natural setting where you caught it, and will not violate any forum policy wink

The minnow bucket is the best thing for the kids. An extra scoop of minnows, and a couple of buckets and my kids were happy with playing with the minnows. Make it fun for them or they won't want to be with you. I remember once catching crappies out of the back of the pontoon, while my kids were swimming at the front. Crappie fishing is fun all year.

Rules are rules. From hereforward, I expect every fish picture to be taken underwater, in their natural environment where they were caught. No exceptions.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
