Went out last night...
« on: Feb 08, 2007, 09:26 AM »
Hey guys, went out last night and caught a few sunnies and a few bass.  Then the sun set and I only caught one crappie.  But here is a picture of the one that I did pull through the ice!!!



I guess that I am not going to complain too much about only catching just one crappie last night!   :woot:

Thats a Dandy.  He'd tell us where it came from but then he'd probably have to kill us. Ha.

Thanks guys for the nice comments, I just wish that I could catch more of them that size ya know!  ;D   I wish I could say where I caught it at but I had to promise the guy I was with that I don't reveal the location... sorry.  I can tell you that I did catch this bad boy on wax worms though.

2 winters ago I caught 40 that size in one day on a small pond by Lake Panorama! Definitely not close to the state record but a nice eater! Need a few more for the skillet!

Definition Putz:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=putz

When I call someone a "putz" I don't mean it exactly the way it's defined on urbandictionary.com. I use it FAR more playfully than that. I'm sure Marnis is too. I'm actually shocked that people from around these parts would be confused by the use of the word "putz".   ;)

Anyway, I had a good weekend too. Caught ALOT of bluegill and some bass and perch. I had to sort the bluegill but I definately could have kepted alot of them if I hadn't been lazy. I was over on Lake Galena (Illinois) using a real small pink jig with a waxworm.

Um, ::) well I was going to but I was sooooo hungry they didn't get that far.
Sounds like a plan for Friday.  Hope this wind dies down a bit and it isn't raining.
