CNY Tim Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Glad I made that call, non stop action from the first hole I drilled. From start to finish a full screen 1' to 2' off the bottom and I caught crappie after crappie. Ended up with 9 keeper crappie in 12' of water and a nice 12" perch. I had fish on the screen all morning I must of caught 50 crappies most were in the 7 to 8.5" range but I caught one that was 11.5" and that was my biggest most of the keeper were between 9 and 10". Caught 3 nice gills and a bunch of squirts. Three snakes (pickerel). Pulled off of the lake at 12 and headed home. The small side of Morraine had 5 - 6" of good solid ice..Northshore was right about that honey worm holy dump the crappies love them things. I used my favorite crppie jig there a Jammin Jig glow ant and T-Boned a whole chartreuse honey worm. I must of caught 20 or so crappies before I needed to change the worm there pretty tough. It was a fun morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Tim Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 Tyler and I hit the small side for the afternoon and evening bite and had fish on the screen the whole time and we had a blast catching small bluegills and crappies, not one bluegill over 7" and no crappies over 8" but we had fun just catching and releasing.

CNY Tim Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 Bussman it was fun catching a ton of small bluegills and crappies probably should have went to the large side to get some bigger fish but it was Tylers day and he wanted the small side. George..., Z and I will be on Darago Mon and Tuesday and maybe another day next week., let me know what's good for you as I believe I have at least one more vacation and one more sick left. Looks like were gonna get wet tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Lee Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Tim, Shoot me an email, I have a good bite that is just starting and won't be able to make it out this week and the ice will be bad by the weekend. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Tim Posted December 26, 2005 Author Share Posted December 26, 2005 Fished the small side with Tyler, North Shore and his son Mike. Ice was still a good 5 - 6" and the bluegills and perch were small but I caught a bunch of fish on JB's Lil Buggers and Ants tipped with spikes. It was fun, and we worked alot of area to find big fish but at the end of the day you were lucky just to bang a bluegill over 6" and the small perch were everywhere. There were a couple guys out on the small side as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north shore Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Nice fishin with you and Tyler today. Lots of action but few keepers. The Jammin jig bobber fry and the glow ant were very hot items. The weather took a change with some white stuff in the air YIPPEE. Next time the large side.
