Pat, if you need help for the weigh-in or whatever, let me know. The boat is in the shop for maintenance so I won't be fishing it.

Thanks for the offer. I let you know.

I went to my first CAT meeting last week. I listen to what was told during the presentation (listening is not something I'm good it). I went to the creek and followed his instructions and was catching crappie. I just might have to join this. I might learn something.

Is there a link for rules that someone could post. I might come and donate.

Click Crappie Anglers of Texas. If you want tournament rules, click on the Tab "Tournaments", and then click what you want to look at in the drop down menu. Latest rules posted is Jan. 1, 2017. We'd like to see you whether it's for meeting or tournaments or both.

UJC, I've read the rules and it doesn't say how many fish you can have in your livewell. Is there a rule about this? I have been a bass tourney guy for 10+ years and the rule for that is only 5 can be in your box, but I'm not sure about crappie.

Thanks for your help

Bogey, There is no rule for the number of fish that are allowed in the livewell other than state possession laws. My suggestion is no more 10 to keep them healthy and alive. Bring a cooler if you want keep extra fish.

cool, that is what I was wondering.

That's what I'm talking about....

Take y'alls money and a cooler of fish home.

Hope to see y'all Saturday.

Heck yeah Roachie!!! Load the cooler and take that money!! Come show us CAT guys how it's done!! I got plans Sat am in E Tx already. Otherwise I would be there to donate.

Gonna try... or donate.

Have fun either way.

If I can pry my cover off my front graph, me and Dave just might be there.

I'm thinking I might just join in on this one

Anybody looking for a partner

Just hit the graph a few times with a hammer! It'll come off!!!

Weather looking good so far; light S wind 5-9 mph and temp 54-70. That should be just right. And judging from some of the reports on here recently, there will be plenty of fish brought in.

I can help with that Ron...You know.

You just stay the hell away from my graphs! I can screw them up all by myself.

"You're up here but I need you at this level" - Remember "Don't sweat the petty things, just pet the ...... ....."

If you have never fished a CAT Tournament, be advised that all fish weighed must be alive. I would hate to see someone have a good day and have a nice stringer but had been putting them in a cooler and they were all dead before weigh-in.

And don't go to weight in line with more than 7 fish! And be on time!!!

And if you fish the marinas, you can't exit your boat to walk around the docks.

Heck, I thought you would tell them that they needed to carry some very expensive insurance so they needed to give you a call so you could inform them of the required coverage and then could hook them up because you knew a guy.


If anybody falls for this, make sure you ask for his wife's contact info instead of his because she is much easier on the eyes and you get some hot sauce out of the deal.
