Ok so it's not a bass but it is the biggest crappie I have every caught.  It was 15"  didn't weigh it but we did bump it.  I wasn't sure where to post it so I put it here. :D

Yep I do have pictures on the bump board.  No yummy either she went back in the lake!  We don't have to many breeders that size in our lake we don't keep them that big they always go back.  I know there are others who keep them and that's ok but someone has to watch out for our breeders. 

Josh I caught it on a little pinky jig.  We were site fishing actully,  however I never saw where this one came from,  I was also using and ultra light rod,  it was a blast.

We caught some more the other night too but only 13 inches was the biggest one.  They are still fun to catch.  The bass weren't biting they seemed to be a little pre occupied.  Living up north we were actually kind of surprised to see some fish locked on beds but they were there.  We didn't even mess with them.

Nice one . I have a lake by my house Elk lake in lapeer. It holds lots of them big slabs . It was in the woulds an waters in feb Mark sak wrote a big article. this guy had a pic of like 8 slabs all like 15 inches or better. He said that he had one Crappie that would break the michigan state record. the Michigan State record was set In 1947 and That crappie was like 19in and like 4 lbs Thats a slab plus a few more lol. if you wanna read the article I think it was feb woods and waters .

Great job on that slab
