In case y'all haven't heard, there was a 3.20lb crappie caught at CrappieFest today! That was the top fish and the only fish over 3lbs, which means that fish earned $5000 for 1st Place AND an additional $4000 for the over 3lb bonus! That's a $9000 payday for ONE crappie!!!  There was also a $1000 bonus for the highest finishing CAT member, but that went to the 2nd Place angler who won $3000 for his 2.97lber! Congrats to all! Some really nice fish caught today.

Wow 
Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

This is exactly why you need to fish crappie fest 2017. He only caught 2 crappie all day and one just happen to be worth 9000 dollars. You never know when that big one is staring at your bait saying should I or should I not. Fortunately for Phillip
He took the bait. As soon as he got it over the boat it fell off the hook.
