I'm lovin' that idea. I have a fryer, I need a new kettle for it. My large one has a puncture for some reason. But, heck yeah. A fish fry would be awesome at Moon Tree with some hushpuppies and Caribian jerked sweet potato chips. YUM!

Post by: PEARL DRUMS on October 31, 2013, 07:41:40 am: Nice fish Bill! The reservoir I live on has a great population of crappies. We only bump into those biggun's in the spring when they are easy to find and catch. Great fish!

Post by: Buffalogobbler on October 31, 2013, 10:23:27 am: 15" WOW!!!
That's a bigun!
Here in NY we fish for them through the ice in the winter. We use 1# test line, I'll bet that size fish would put up an epic battle on 1# test.

Post by: Parnell on October 31, 2013, 11:38:30 am: I used to catch MONSTERS like that in N. Illinois near the Wisconsin border. I lived on a lake that was loaded with 'em. They were flat suckers in the spring for a little gold bead head nymph on a fly rod. Before the days of a camera phone...ugh.

Great fish.

Post by: Danzn Bar on October 31, 2013, 06:05:19 pm: Thanks all for the comments ....................
These days (my older years) I do all my hunting the morning and then fishing in the afternoon....makes a good combo for weekend.
Fish fry at Moontree? ................. ??? :-\ :-\ ;)

Oh by the way my wife said it was gooood eat'n. I didn't get a bite of that one. I lost 5 jigs in the tree he was in and didn't catch another big one ....just 8 more about 11" long.
And yep they were good.
Till next time...
