Default Monksville Res. 10/24: Nighttime Topwater Slab Crappie

Did the after dark special at Monksville tonight after work. Left the south boat launch and trolled crankbaits and herring along the dropoffs with no dice, so we decided to make a run to the north side. Within a few casts in a cove in 6ft. of water, I landed this guy on a big jointed floating rapala. Measured close to 2lbs. on the digital scale, by far my personal best Crappie.

On a side note, of all the times I've fished Monksville, I've never hooked up with a Crappie, much less one this respectable. Anyone else ever catch these guys here?
