Well, I tried the crappie again... with no success. Caught 8 total with only one keeper. Kept a few whole fry blue gill because I have never tried them. They were pulling water hard and current out of drakes creek was strong. The current carried my live minnow about 12 ft deep into a down tree and I was in for a surprise. Didn't weight her, but 22 inches and broad as a barn! So, I can't say all was lost. First keeper small mouth I have caught on Old Hickory since the semi-new 18" rule!
