Simple approach lands angler the new record Ohio white crappie

Teresa Croy wasn’t having much luck fishing with plastics, so she switched to a worm and float. What she ended up catching on Nov. 2 was a new record white crappie that weighed 3.91 pounds, just besting the state record for the species. The catch was certified as a record by the Outdoor Writers of Ohio. (Photo courtesy Teresa Croy)

Teresa Croy, of Ottawa, Ohio, spent the early part of the day on Nov. 2, 2024, throwing all manner of plastics in attempt to catch a fish at the Glandorf Rod and Gun Club in Putnam County.
Any fish would do, she said, but she wasn’t having much luck.
“We had been fishing for crappies for probably and hour or so using plastic lures and we weren’t getting any bites at all,” Croy said.
