After a fun day yesterday, I promised my bro-in-law that we&#39;d get after some crappie today. We hit the water about 8:45am and stayed until 12:00pm. He fished his minners and I threw panfish assassins and BG shad. We hit 2 bluffs and 2 docks on the main channel. We caught 18-20 crappie and 2 nice largemouth on minnows. I had to go to work, otherwise we&#39;d probably still be out there emoCool The bite really started to pick up the last 20 minutes we were out there. I worked the bait pretty much on the bottom and VERY slow. The bites were subtle this morning but by 11:30-12:00 they were slamming it. We threw a few 10 inchers back and kept 8 good sized ones for the freezer. We had a morning of good fishing and great laughs. My boat didn&#39;t want to start at the end, so we trolled towards Skull Island until I finally got it started. We saw DitchDoc and EricM at the &quot;community&quot; but didn&#39;t want to swing by because I didn&#39;t know how much trolling juice I had left... emoLaugh emoSorry <br /><br />http://i39.tinypic.com/2la3mub.jpg<br /><br />http://i41.tinypic.com/zk5ug7.jpg
