nice stringer, that is a hog crappie!

tagyak · 11-12-2010, 09:31 AM

nice haul! what did you use to catch them on?
just curious, why weren't you on a kayak? is it b/c you brought your gf? or does irvine lake not allow for them on the lake?
i have never been there.

Nice stringer FishinReelDeals. I'm tempted to head up from SD and do some trout fishing there.

tagyak, I was just on the website for Irvine lake and it looks like they allow sit on top kayaks.

Nice stringer. Have'nt had one of them in a long time. Thinking of taking my yak one of these days. What did you guys use for trolling?
