We went out Saturday to a pond that is currently down about 3 feet from the drought. My Dad got the first, and second LM on a brown craw colored 3/8 Mann's 1 minus. The first fish was the largest of the day at 2-15.

I started throwing my 1 minus with no luck, and then BAM something hit it hard. I thought that the fish got off because there was very little resistance while I was bringing it in. I ended up pulling in a crappie about 7" long. Couldn't believe that a fish that little would go after a 3/8 crankbait.

My Dad got two more LM before we called it a day and headed home.

This little guy is about the same size and he hit a 1/2oz brush jig with half a rocket craw so hard my line jumped noticeably while the jig was falling next to a dock. Kind of felt bad because I laid into him on the hookset
