Took the boy and the canoe north of here to a new lake I found. Its an FWC lake. Bluegill and sunfish have to be greater than 8” Crappie was 10” We caught no crappie. Bluegill and catfish only Bluegill was just under 10” (our largest) The big fish preferred worms. Channel cat. Caught on cricket Bullhead (he and I decided to coordinate our camo pattern) First one I’ve caught. Also caught on cricket It ate better than the channel cat. Def tasty This lake had some great structure and some sharp roll offs to some deeper water I’m hoping the crappie bite will be good. The lake is 30 min from DT Tampa. Thats convenient.

That's a monster crappy.
Pan fish are great eating just a PIA to clean a bunch of them.
I caught a catfish that looked just like that one in the 2nd pic out of Bay a couple of weeks ago, killed it and ate it, damn good!

Lol Run a trolling motor. It’s rated for a 5 hp though. I’m afraid to put that on it. Thing would run on the chines only

That’s a sweet little rig. Bet it would be great around here on the flats for stripers in the spring!

Mucky, nice way to expend time with your son. By the way, I have a Minn Kota trolling motor, brand new that I bought for a small 10 ft lake prowler that will fit your canoe, I am willing to sell it, I think I paid around $200. Will give it away for $100 if you want it. Bad thing is I don't remember the model now, have to go to the house in the keys to tell you.

But it’s quite old(and not a sw version) I’m not in any rush but an upgrade to a saltwater model would be nice. If you can remember, next time your down there grab a pic and or model and send it to me.
