Ever catch a 2.5 pound crappie?

Kens huge crappie

Ken Thyrod did yesterday here in Cedar Rapids fishing a slip-bobber and a minnow.  Ken stopped by the local Gander Mountain store to show off his catch so I shot some video.  Ken plans on having the fish mounted and I don’t blame him.  It’s one of the largest crappie I have seen.  Congratulations, Ken!
