    Here it is!! 16 inches of Rainy Lake Crappie!! We caught around 50 crappies for the day and the guys limited out. Pictured here with 14 to 16 inch slabs. Oh……Might have caught some beast Walleyes and pike as well!!

    Congrats to Chris Graber, Justin Graber and Brad Walen. Was an honor to share the sheet with you. Customer urged to get your ice fishng dates locked for next season.

    When it comes to big crappie, Rainy is the land of the GIANTS. Way to get on them, Chris and crew!

    Alright Chris, I have to ask…were any of these beauties pulled through a 5″ hole, or is that saved only while fishing with James?

    Fun!

    Just Holst and Koonce are Crazy like that. I like the extra room to get both arms down the hole.

    Feel bad for the S and D team. Always tough to turn down a chance to slam those big slabs!! Mike said he is NO LONGER bringing us any more Vernors. LOL!!

    How long does it take to grow a 16″ crappie?

    My guess in Borderland water is 10-12 years. Which also by the way is about the end of the life cycle.
