Wiperslayer and I got up to Pineview again today, started off fishing the Narrows and found stacks of crappie everywhere we fished but they were only 8"  . Moved East to the Spring creek, Middle creek area, caught perch in 12 to 9 FOW, then moved deeper and found better numbers but not much over 8" in length, even a mud cat. We had been jigging up to this point, finally started trolling, picking up a bunch of 8 to 9" crappie, then the big fish hit and amazingly it did not cut the line.

We kept on trolling finally started to pick up a couple of bigger crappie:

Was hoping to catch more of these bigger crappie but it wasn't to be, tried to let them go but it was too late, so I just kept them. Was hoping for one more species to make it a 5 for the day but we were happy with the four we caught.

Nice catches guys, I haven't fished PV since the 70's. Not to far of a drive for me but I got turned off of the traffic that hits the lake and the toll charges.

They don't charge this time of the year, the drawback is that they don't have any docks either. No traffic this time of the year either  .

Well done. Have they quit charging for parking for the year?

Congrats on the successful day. I've yet to tangle with a TM on PV.

Saw you were selling your boat, are you upgrading to a different boat or selling another boat?

Do they have musky in any lakes in Idaho?

I need to get out in my float tube before it gets too cold.
