Spent the entire day on one of my favorite crappie lakes yesterday.  I probably caught over 200 perch.  25 smaller ones, and then you’d get a nice one.  Everywhere I drilled a hole, the locator would eventually look like this.  I hooked one crappie all day.  It was an absolute giant.  Too many perch!  I should have occasionally retied.  The slab, guessing 15-16” broke off at the top of the hole and I failed at grabbing it.  😩 I’m definitely paying for my efforts today.  What a sunburn on my face and hands!!  Probably done with ice, but we’ll see.
