Some of the larger crappie I've caught. All of them on a large piece of driftwood would make a great mount, I think.

Nice northern crappie, but down south they wouldn't raise an eyebrow..

And a 10lb Walleye doesn't raise an eyebrow in Green Bay, and a 20lb King doesn't raise an eyebrow in washington, and a 5lb bass doesn't raise an eyebrow in California, and a 40" pike doesn't raise an eyebrow in Northern Canada. I wouldn't mind catching any of those! Nice crappies, do you remember the sizes of any of those?

All came from different bodies of water.

Nice slabs. My biggest crappie came from a retention pond. 16" 3/4.I have not caught any of that size in a couple of these ponds but had a buddy get a 15" and we ave. 12-14". Point is it amazes me still what we have in our own backyards!! Again great crappies and that ice pic gave me goose bumps.
