Hey everyone,

No fish stories here. Biggest one you've caught, tell us.
Through the ice of course.

2lber while fishing in open water for smallies last weekend. I it got draggin' a white tube. It was a giant, I didn't measure it, just weighed it, but I'm guessing 16"+.

Empty,
That's coming up on 2/3? years now on christmas eve as I recall. I was there to witness them that day. Monsters.
They came from a lake called X.

My biggest black crappie was 14.5". Last year was the first year we fished for them so here's hoping for a bigger one this year.

emptyhanded · « **Reply #11 on:** Dec 11, 2003, 11:56 AM »

Yep

Two years ago -- I have some good pictures of the mounts

I am going to try the lake over the hill -- where we went last year with the quad -- That lake holds some slab crappie. Our other lake got hit pretty hard last year

Hijinks · « **Reply #12 on:** Dec 11, 2003, 03:08 PM »

I agree. This time I'll stay longer then 4 hours. We'll make a day and/or evening of it.

Soon as it's safe ice, let's drag our swill out there and give it a shot.

16" soft water,15 1/4"hard water.My dad caught one 17 1/2"out of Norris Lake,Tennessee and ate it.I think I'd have had it mounted.........

Van_Cleaver · « **Reply #16 on:** Dec 17, 2003, 08:23 AM »

Measure the lenght and girth, and get a synthetic replica mount. It all comes down to the painting, anyway. That way you can have your mount and eat it, too. Make sure you have a good photo, as well.

14 1/2" 1 pound 8 ounce white crappie on Fox Lake last winter. Lost one as big or bigger a couple days later.

I caught two of my biggest Black Crappies in one day at a local pond in Clarkston,Michigan
First one was 15" 1.7lbs
Second one was 13 1/2" 1.3lbs
I mounted the 15" hoping for bigger this year.

My biggest one would have to be a 16.5 incher out of bear island lake... people might recognize my picture from the ely echo... i was in it for that fish along with my dad and brother. (Jake, Joe, Roger) great vacation and all the crappies we caught out of there were over 13'' and the three biggest we kept for mounting... (How do i post pictures?)

Crappie84 · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 06, 2004, 03:58 PM »

twodoggs · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 08, 2004, 11:06 PM »

WEll two years ago I had a real good string of luck. the largest was 18 in and weighed 3.5 lb. He is on the wall. there were many 14 to 15 in, one 16 and one 17.
It was a blast pulling them out.

CNY_Tim · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 09, 2004, 07:50 AM »

15 1/4" and 15 1/2" caught at Six Towns Pond, west of Adams, NY

Ice_Fly · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 10, 2004, 10:56 AM »

.... 17 1/2" 2 1/4 lbs...i caught it in a gravel pit on open water. I was using a floating rapala for bass and started getting big crappies. I got 5 or 6 altogether the others ranging 14-16 inches. I've been back lots of times and tried everything and have yet to catch another one.

This was a few yrs ago and I haven't caught any crappies over 14 inches since then.

ShawnM · « **Reply #27 on:** Jan 16, 2004, 12:13 PM »

17 1/4 and 18 inch caught on a private Lake in NJ. On this lake you get you're limit of 10 in 30 hour on the open water

Fish Monger · « **Reply #28 on:** Jan 22, 2004, 02:06 PM »

Approximately 17 inches. I have no idea about the weight. Caught it on a huge Swedish Pimple with a orange stripe while fishing for Lakers. I was fishing a shelf of water on lower Mousam Lake. It felt like an old boot coming up, no fight and dead weight.

Caught a pair of 13 inch twins last year throught the ice at chattaqua lake in ny. Than this last spring i got a 14 incher out of grand island ny.
