fly Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Yesterday we had about an hour before baseball practice so my Daughter Mackenzie (7) wanted to do some fishing. She caught several fat bluegill (about 9 inches) and we just needed one more fish to have a good fish fry. That's when she hooked this crappie using a worm. At first I thought it was a bass the way it was getting air, but then realized it was a big crappie. I know they can get up to 20 inches in some areas, but not around here. It measured 14 inches and as she realed it in I asked her how she was doing and she said: "It's going to pull me in". Well it didn't and she got it to shore and said she wanted it mounted for her room. So we dropped it off at the taxi last night. $112.00 and ready for Christmas.
