Panfish Combat Fishing!

Caught three pin-fish! Crappie, white perch, and sunfish! in span for two weeks.

Totally caught me off guard! I was boring and fishing for bass until I found sunfish was making their own nesting. I was surprised that they do this at early of season. I usually seen them do that at early June. But next day, I brought worms and went after them on my trout set up. banged them hard, then white perch showed up! Caught 1.10 pound white perch! I never seen that big before. It was impressive. Next cast, 1.8 pounds crappie! If I had to write a book about nice ending, this is one hell of story!

Caught over 300 sunfishes that range 8-10 inch long with almost 12 ounces on every fish. Plus, several on 12-14 ounces for pinfish size.

White perch caught probably around 20 of them. but they was mostly male. got whole white stuff allover me when hold on their belly to unhook it. haha

Crappies was caught 11 times. all of them was baby size until that monster hit.
