This piggy hit at 5:45 p.m. tonight on a forage minnow and a crappie minnow head. She came in suspended 7 foot over 15 fow. She measured 12 3/4 inches . We ended up with 5 crappies total with a few really nice fish. Wierd thing was we had no bites on the bobbers :scratch:
P.S. the eyes are going  ;D

Walleye came on the same lure as the crappies.
wiggle wiggle dead stick was key to make them strike!

I went out solo to almost same spot as yesterday on madison today and did pretty good . I had a few missed fish at the hole and a few missed bobber downs  :cry: The fish were really active compared to yesterday ! here is a few pics of the catch.

me and drummer and kgauker where out last night did pretty good cought lots of fish ... :snow5: most all the fish came at power houre and they would really really hit hard you just had to do a lot of hole hopping to find them they are on a very good feeding pattern right now we did a lot of looking must of poped 80 holes to try to find the fish in the day time becouse we knew that the night bit would be there but we wanted to find a day bit well we fond some fish over deeper water but they where moveing aroind a lot and not feding much out there

Nice fish.  It looks like it might be worth a drive down there from Shakopee one of these days.

yea see drummer i figured out why you were missing the bobbers here's the steps 1) reel up slack 2)feel for the fish 3) set the hook 4) yell FISH ON! haha jk i'm sure you just fished with mike to often and forgot how to hook a fish on the bobber

Leaving bobbers unattended while out "hole hopping" is illegal, they coun't as an unattended line.

I did not leave any lines "unattended" I was sittin in my house when I missed the bites. I got fed up with missing them so I reeled the bobber up and went running holes! Thanks for your concern though walleyeguy.
