I'd be curious to know how many inches it was. As far as I can see it's not mentioned. I hope he took it to a good taxidermist. A lot of taxidermists aren't good with crappies. They can be difficult to skin as the scales come out easily. I don't have problems but many do.
19.1/4”long with a girth of 17 3/4”
You are not kidding. Those scales make mess in the kitchen...
That’s a more than just a slab all right! People over on the ice shanty have figured that fish might fit up an 8” hole
I read that 🤪
