Hello friends, been jigging since early April and caught plenty o black and white crappies, drum, perch, buegills, pickerel (in season mind you 
).... nothing that will change the course of history but sweet after a very long winter... from shore using 1/16 oz mini tubes and from the boat using 1/8 oz tubes.... just to feel the hits as the jig falls, line on the index finger, is pure heaven, the drum are both over 22 inches, I am trying to leave them alone as they begin to spawn soon, but once they are done (when the water is about 65° F - the surface is 60°F right now) they will strap on the feedbag as they settle into a summer pattern of sitting on humps late into the night near deeper water. Anyhuuu, enjoy the pics and more to come as the 2013 season unfolds!
Good luck to all, be safe and have fun.... oh, and go barbless!
