4/30/2018 5:18:50 PMMy wife and I were tossing 3" plastics 2 years ago catching crappie when she nailed a 2# smallmouth. It really surprised me as I didn't know there were any in Eloika, I just figured it was one that someone"planted" on their own. It went back into the water so it doesn't surprise me that folks are catching them now.
