I want to offer a crappie trip on Grenada Lake, Ms to any combat soldier that has served in Afghansistan or Iraq, male or female.
I want to do this trip in prime spawn time [March] so this American hero can have the best chance to catch a 3 pound plus
trophy.
I will furnish everything that is needed for this full day of fishing.
I have also posted this trip on crappie.com.

Gary,

GM 5,

Sgt. Slab Seeker, You don't have to worry about not being back in
time to get a fishing trip young man, I can take you anytime it's convenient for you.
You just get back safe and we'll jump on those big slabs when you can.
I'm not a guide, but have been thinking about it some, but fear not an ole blind squirrel can fine a acorn now and then.
If you get a chance, go to about the second or third page here on the crappie forum and look at those three crappie I'm holding.
That is me, I was having computer problems and had Ernest Paty post that for me.
I now have a new provider and go by my real name.
I will send you some crappie reading stuff by mail if you would like?
Take care of yourself, and stay in touch.

Gary Meadors

That's awesome, GM5. Now that's giving back!

GM 5,

If you are able to send any reading material on crappie I would forever be debted to you. I just want to learn how to master this sport that I have grown to love. We will keep in touch as often as I can and thanks again.

Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Adourian, Merry Christmas to ya buddy. I hope they let you off today to enjoy the reason for the season, The Birth Of Jesus.
Hey it might be a day or two before I can get you some good crappie reading in the mail. Have you seen the dvd that Ernest Paty has out?, if not I'll get one to ya.

Gary,

We are off today all missions are stopped until tomorrow. No problem and no rish on gettign the material mailed out. I will be patient I haven't seen the dvd I read about it and wanted to try to order one but I didn't know if they would mail it over here. But thanks to you, I guess I can see it now. Yeah I really want to learn as much as I can about crappie fishing and really get the hang of it. Back when I was stationed in S.C. (FT Jackson) is when I really fell in love with crappie fishing I met a real good guy (civilian) and I started fishing with him quite often and we became real good friends heck, he even taught me what I know about a boat. And soon after that, I bought one and you know how the military is..... Before I knew it it was time to move again. He and I still keep in touch but not as much but enough. Anyway, I am open to learning anything I can. By the way, here is my e-mail address ruff2blessed@yahoo.com Look forward to hearing from you soon. One more thing where do you live? I am in Killeen Texas.

Adourian, I live on Pickwick Lake, Tn, moved here about 3 years ago from Grenada Lake, Ms.
I know all about Killeen, Tx, I was station there in 1967 after
I returned from Viet-Nam and by the way I was a combat eng. also.
I could have stayed in Viet-Nam another 2 or 3 months and mustarded out there, but they were kicking our [censored] and I had that ole bad feeling, so I came on back and pulled I think four
months there at Ft. Hood with a unit heading out to Viet-Nam.
The adress on your other post is that all correct to sent you stuff?

Later Man.......Gary
