nate larson Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 On Friday night I caught by far the biggest crappie of my life. It was a fat 15 1/4 inches. Caught it about 30 minutes after sunset on a rattling jigging spoon tipped with a minnow head. I have never mounted a fish before but this one is going to the taxidermist. I caught him through the ice in the Alex area. Here are a couple of pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott M Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Congratulations on the nice fish Nate. Many productive panfish waters around the Alex/Glenwood area. What a way to kick off the ice season, and we're not even into December yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate larson Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 she's a beauty. you know that just means its all downhill from here right? Pfffffff. The party has only just begun. Now if your wife would let you off your leash once in a while we could get out after them together. Hopefully I will make it out in the metro area this weekend! Things should be in good shape soon with this cold weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2dalake Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Did you weigh her? I caught 15.5" about three years ago and put her back. I got a photo with it first that didn't turn out real great, but I always thought about a graphite mount from the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
