Nice catch. Looks like it’s time to sharpen up the filleting knife and get em ready for supper.

The filet knife was sharpened and it's whats for dinner.
Hindsight, I should have put something in the picture for size reference.
I didn't actually measure the bigger crappies, but for size reference, the bluegills were a bit bigger than my hand. My hand is about 8 inches.

Bond County pond mattdo? Let me know where that is and I PROMISE I'll keep the honey hole warmed up and a secret ...LOL That's my back yard per say.
Crappie fillets and some fresh morels sounds good about now (along with a adult beverage).
