Was out at my favorite local pond and threw out my normal 4 inch Senko on 3/0 wide gap hook. Got a few decent bass and then moved to my favorite spot. Proceeded to cast out and before the Senko even hit bottom I felt a THUMP and set the hook. Started peeling drag and the fight was on. I got her about 5 feet from shore when she jumped and all I saw was a flash of silver. I thought to myself....Silver, bass aren't silver.....Holy Crap its a Crappie!!!! Got her ashore and proceeded to almost crap myself at the size of her. My biggest Crappie before this was 9 inches and this one by my rough estimate was 14+ but I forgot to do girth. I was tempted to bring this one home with me but I am 100% catch and release so back into the water she went. I'm just glad my buddy was there with me to witness and photograph me.
Any guesses on weight? She fought like hell and based on previous bass I have weighed and felt, she felt like 2 almost 3 pounds but I could be wrong.
