Thanks, but you may not be as impressed when I tell you how many hours per fish I've invested... Most times it's 3 hours for one fish or last week 5 hours for one fish... Today I did a little better, but I've probably spent over 40 hours to finally find the good one... I love crappie, but they sure aren't easy for me to find... I'm impressed you found so many at Newton, (I can't even graph one over there.) that's a great crappie haul... Are they in deep water or otherwise? I'd love to find a spot with lots of crappie so you can have a blast catching them, but that's hard to do around here and I live too far from Pineview to go often enough to figure them out there... Neat fish though, I think they are one of my favorites, but I guess I have lots of favorite fish... Luckily I live close to Cutler so I can run out for an hour after work and put in enough attempts that I found a few..
Well I think you did better than anyone I've heard of at Newton this year, but that shouldn't be a surprise with the way you can charm the catfish... thanks for letting us know there are still some fish in there... Later Jeff
PS... For the question about the bluegill, they are still in Newton, I haven't caught any this year, but did last ice season... They were actually pretty nice sized, but they are like the crappie, where you find them and when you find them...
