Cajunangler caught a giant one on a stick bait a couple of years ago on Bull Shoals. He cares very little about crappie, but it was so big he took a picture of it. I don't think he bothered to measure it. Lol.

I fished a long time before I caught one over 15 inches, but I finally caught one on Bull. It was 16 and 1/4 inches. Lol. Dozens of 14 & 3/4 inch long one and then that.

I took a buddy and his first ever crappie was 15 1/4 inches. Crazy.

a couple uears ago 14 and 15 iinch crappie were pretty common up here at LOZ.

I remember the hay days of Kentucky Lake. there was a lot of monsters in there.

Its been years since I fished the Mississippi. It ised to have a lot of big crappie below clarksville and winfield dams. It was the best crappie fishing in Mo may still be for all I know.

I'll never have a bass mounted. My parents had a 6 1/2 pound largemouth mounted for me when I was 10 years old. That was a big bass in 1972. But if I caught a 20 inch crappie, I'd get the best skin mount money could buy and proudly hang it somewhere.

A 20" crappie would make a heck of a mount. I've always liked the "school of crappie" mounts where you have 3-4 crappie around a piece of wood.

I've only fished for crappie 3 times on TR. Best so far: about 13".

Funny, though--my all-time best crappie came from a totally unexpected time and place: Little Bay de Noc on the extreme north end of Lake Michigan, in November. 18-1/2 inches. Hit a 1/2-oz. jig with 4" sucker minnow. Totally floored everyone at the fish house.
