I think we all need to start talking about fishing! I've been a camp owner since 2010 and here is my list of biggest fish.
Pike- 36", Didn't weigh it.
Large mouth Bass- 4.85 lbs
Small mouth bass- 3.33 lbs
Catfish- 9 lbs
Perch- 13"
Gar pike- 26"
Blue Gil- 9.5"
Crappie 15.5"
Carp- n/a
Musky- n/a
Walleye- n/a

So please leave your bragging list, I know some of you experienced folk have caught bigger fish than I!

How long ago was that crappie caught? Through the ice or summer?

It was caught on our early summer trip. I'm sorry to say we did not make it for ice fishing :cry:

These are fish that have been taken in my boat. Had a musky on once but lost him. Hopefully we'll be able to fish this year, we're going to be there for the opener. Any word on the flooding around the Log Cabins?/Users/joshuacoliemac/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2008/Black Lake Fishing Pictures/IMG.jpg
