Fall gills & crappie

The gills and crappie are starting to turn on!  Me and a buddy fished our (secret) little pond this afternoon.  Don't know how many were caught, but we kept 30 for the evening fish fry (YUM!)
 
This was dinner

    Nice catch
     

    The only thing better than 1 day of fishing is 2 days of fishing.

    Thanks Chauncy.  I've been wanting to make it up your way for some crappie, but haven't had the time.  The boat is not winterized yet, so it's still not out of the question!

    Let me know when you want to fish up here and i'll fish with you. Show you a few good spots for this time of year.
