My wife is fresh from China - never been fishing before in her life !!
During the past 2 years, she has learned so much about the angling sport it is ridiculous.
She has two big tackle boxes and 17 rod/reel outfits. salt and fresh water.
It is common for her to get a full stringer of bass, bluegill, pickerel, catfish, etc.
But, Crappie has always eluded her !!! only a few here and there. It has become her
most favorite fish and most challenging.
For her Christmas present, I bought her a Crappie Charter . . . from a local certified guide
that is HIGHLY recommended and sought after.
Between 8:00 am and noon, she single handedly landed 18 huge slabs !!! On minnows.
we didn't get the high numbers that he usually gets (50 keepers) but we got MEAT !!
she could not have been more happy than a kid at Disney for the first time.
You know how women are - they won't take a WORD that we say, but will follow a
strangers advice to the MOON LOL LOL LOL....
So, anyway, the Crappie Guide took her under his wing and taught her everything she
should know about catching Crappie in 4 hours .... MONEY WELL SPENT !!!
if you can swing some professional instruction from someone, that will benefit you tremendously.
oh, you know those two big tackle boxes and 17 rod/reel outfits. salt and fresh water ????
used to be MINE !!! LOL LOL LOL
now I am starting all over again on tackle (but at least now I get all new stuff)
