    WOW!!! My inlaws live outside Brainerd. Maybe I should take a road trip.

    Can you pick me up on the way through.
    I have a few lakes up there that might be able to do that.
    Those are some sumo slabs

    I should be able to get to your house in 3-4 hours Ben. Can I tag along?

    nice fish but a case of leines is only 15.5″

    I thought about the same thing after my orig posting, Still a nice fish but not 18.5″, or at least not the one on the cardboard case of beer.

    I couldnt imagine catching a slab like that! Outstanding fish.

    Here is a slab that was found dead due to winter kill in central Iowa.

    Wow!!!! Those are some awesome crappies.

    Where’s the line forming for the trip to that crappie lake?
    I’ll bring the boat, beer & lunch.

    In the past we ran a month long crappie contest here in the Brainerd area. I would weigh in quite a few nice ones each year. It would take a brute to hit 2 pounds. Usually they were 15-17 inches in length to make 2 pounds. What do you think something 18.5 inches would tip the scales at? I would think at this time of the year they would be beefing up too.

    Anyone remember Winni (I mean Green Lake) a couple years ago? We were catching that size all day long. And that’s the truth is’nt it Briank, Matt,and a few others?
