    I love those tournaments. When the weigh times are over we go catch some crappie for dinner and just enjoy hanging out with friends. Some people like to fish solo but I always fish with a friend and we split everything 50/50

    I was the guy that saw you at the brush pile at the bridge and asked where your ladder was! Also my fishing partner is the one who had the 8.63 that you were talking about on day 1 lol awesome to see you and good luck on the fall one if you fish it I know I will be!

    For anyone living in north Texas, get ready for some great fishing in the next years. Bois de’arc is done in 4-6 years and Ralph hall is gonna be built. They’re putting tons of share lunkers in to the waterways and making it to where the fish develop before public fishing is available

Don’t get me wrong I would love to have that boat I dream of having one but I don’t think I could afford to fish as much as I do or as much as I would want to with that boat I can fish all day for 25-30 bucks and cost me nothing to haul it!
