Shooting out of the water like sent from a gun barrel and then splat. A sideways fall to the surface. Droplets held silver and only for an instant. I have the rod tip high and lower it as fast as I can. I have two jackets on and one is my bulky outer parka. Cumbersome, warm, and definitely in the way. It’s all fish now.

The crappie rod is doubled over and after raising the trout two to three feet I lose it. My daughter is not in to catch and release. She’s reeling like mad and the gorgeous splake erupts through the augured hole...
