Some one is having way too much fun!!! But then again, wouldn't blame ya...Enjoy...!!!
It's great to have helpful hints, but it's even greater when you find them on your own.
Believe me...spending enough time on the water will pay off eventually. I used to think of a single limit is unreachable and that it may be a fairy tale...
The bad side is...as much time and dedication I have spent over the yrs, I am way too spoiled thinking that if I don't catch a limit, it's failure. Thus, I am glad to see anyone's success and for him/her to appreciate the time he/she spent on the water w/o a clue!

Congrats on your first limit!! Nice fish too.
Caught my first ever limit on crappie two years ago, but on Toledo Bend!! Toledo has a daily bag limit of 50/person/day. It took me about 3 hours to do this and almost every cast.

congrats- i don't blame you for the limited info
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

Congrats. Nice slabs. Remember my first time but that was 40 years ago. Limit was as many as you could catch and as many as you wanted to clean back then. Glad they have a 25 fish limit per person now.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
