Nice, where did you go to get them? Was that yesterday? I can imagine it would have been a bit on the chilly side. I'm anxious to get out on the water for some early season crappie, but my work schedule (and the still relatively short days) keeps me to weekend-only availability for fishing... and this weekend is supposed to be REALLY cold. Maybe soon the 40's an 50's (hopefully with some sunshine) will come back and I'll have a chance to get out there. Most years, when we start getting that 50+ and sunshine... I'm waiting for the ice to melt. How deep were the crappie you found? Were you fishing slow/stationary or a bit of an active presentation? Glad you got out there and got some.

 

I knew you couldn't help yourself, LOL! Hell, we could start a new river to fish in with all those tears... "its cold!" Just kidding buddy, good times. lol

It's always a great day to fish!

 

Muddskipper and I got those in about 4 ft of water using minnows.
And yes it was last night. Sorry lil buddy I couldn't stand the cold any longer, we'll kill them again Fri night, and by the way the racoons got on my back patio and ate those before I could clean them.

I have a pond, and have brought some nice slabs back from west harbor the last few seasons, thye seem to be doing great in there. I have been catching them all winter on the nice days. I fish a small minnow real deep in the middle of the pond, and they go pretty well that way. I had intended to invite ice buddies out, but so much for that this season......H2Oolic

 

are you fishing at night??

Good basket full. Keep up the good work.

 

Nimi is my home lake too. Wish I could go fishing, but some fool volunteered me for grandkid babysitting.

 

It was all slush last night, no way to fish it! going to take ride down there in a little bit and see if it will be fishable tonight.

The Silverback

 

You guys are great! They know your hole by the size of the fish you pull out. That, and everyone knows you've always been partial to NIMI.
Anyhow, are you done pushing that slush and breaking up the ice so that I can fish, or what? LOL!

It's always a great day to fish!
