Crappie.... - 05/16/21 07:49 PM
Caught these on Fork yesterday. I had one that was so big, I could not get it in the boat! I got a 10 foot pole, 6lb test line, I tried to swing it into the back of the boat and the line snapped just before I got it in! I should have used my net!! Damitt!!
This lay down tree is really cool. You can see it is like 60 foot long, and it is just loaded with fish. And I could not trick any of them to bite my jig. I tried all jig colors too. The fish just did not want to play. If you dropped a minnow down there they would probably bite that, but I like to trick them with a jig!!
3 crappie make a good dinner, that is 6 fillets that is a lot for me. And 3 big ones, that is a really big dinner.
I drop them in to zip lock bag of "Louisiana Fish Fry New Orleans Style", into peanut oil 350 degrees, 2 and a half minutes. Drop the big ones in first, normally it takes half a minute to drop the last one in, so some only cook 2 minutes which is the minimum all they need.
With some of my home made tarter sauce and some of my son's home made bean soup.
