Caught a ton of crappie yesterday, despite the chaotic lake traffic but this guy was the big surprise. Found a new brush pile that had about 2 dozen big crappie on it . Caught s 13 incher od it and then my son hooked up with a fish that fought much harder. Was surpised to see it was la rock bass and a good one. Was loved to seen what it weighed before spawn. 11.25 inches. All fish got to swim
Again yesterday.

And btw, thank you for calling what it is, a Rock bass and not a Redeye. Over here, we have Rock bass and Coosa bass, they both have red eyes and most folks call them both "Redeye's". So anytime somebody tells me they caught a bunch of Redeye I have to ask which kind? Most of the time, they don't know…🙄

Then they call Warmouth "Redeyes," too.

Nice! I fish probably 40 something weeks out of the year. This is one of them that I just refuse to go though! I half thought about it and then said "nope...not doing it".

I said i wouldnt ever go either. Started out twra lake and it was almost empty. The. Went to Normandy and it was packed. We were catching crappie off a huge brush pile while 2 pontoons were parked across the cove.

Yep, two different fish…

Sometimes a person's location has a bearing on what a fish is called..
Where I grew up (N. Al ) we call a warmouth a goggle eye or a rock bass…

Kinda like a crappie being called crappy or speck 🤷‍♂️
