Where do ya live at IceJohn? I'm not retired but am fortunate to be able to do most of my fishing during the week... at least on public waters.

Hey john
I've been getting them at the public lake to your northeast, no names mentioned. Not real big, about 9-10, enough to keep a guy interested. Some day that I get a day off were gonna have to hit 'em up. I might go tomorow after work, be on the water by 630 or so. See ya.
Dave
p.s.

If your looking for a great crappie bite and not to bad size try the Fairmont, MN area lakes with Hall inparticular. Best bite is at dusk and into the night. When I was there it was all you could catch. The bit was really on. Most fish were 8 to 10" but a few were bigger the biggest about 14"

Ice John I have a question for you since you are close to Volga Lake or actually anyone can answer if they know.

When did the perch get in there? I went to college at UIU (96') and I never caught a perch in that lake. Mostly crappies and gils. Did they stock them in there or were they illegally introduced?

Just curious? Any size? Jumbo?

I will start a new post for this question.
