Crappie and Poppers

The kids hit a great night on the water with Crappie deciding to hammer the bass poppers we were tossing. Having fished here multiple times in the past, this was a first.

They were leaving the water on the strike and completely swallowing the entire #6 deer hair popper!

Nice. Must have been great fun.

Geez, nice catch. I love days like that. Good for you guys.

Too cool! Hope he caught a stringer full!

Those are fun and tasty.

Top-water Slabs…Nice!!!

I would have starved to death in grad school except for that fact.

Did not know they would jump when hitting the lure. Nice day for sure.

jimp,

Neither did I until the other week. :slight_smile:

Now that would be fun! Never had a crappie hit a popper but at night things are different on the water. Nice pic and report.
