1lb 13oz Catfish - 10.5" Crappie - 9" Crappie

Crappie biting a short time - just before dark (6:30PM) - off my fishing pier. Been like this for 5 days and I'm picking up 1 or 2 Crappie on Rod n Reel. Then I put out yoyo's with minnows for after dark and usually pick up 1 or 2 more Crappie (but last night I added a 1.75 lb channel catfish).

Slowly but surely I've put together several 'fish dinners' (mostly for my neighbors but also some for my aunt)

Storms tonight shut me down on rod n reel fishing - but I do have the yoyo's out - just in case another catfish or crappie swim by.

Oh - I forgot - I usually on keep 10" or bigger crappie but two 9" in last few days swallowed the hook.

BTW: Biggest I got was Monday night - in the rain = 14" - it swallowed the hook so I had to clean it in the rain - so today I moved my fish cleaning table inside the boat house.
