Thread: 5 for 5 anyone?

Big crappie don't really excite me. I compare it to me archery hunting, while like others I'd love to take a huge buck but that's not why I'm out there. My favorite deer ever taken in my life was a doe and very doubtful that will ever change. It's the memories not the size.

X2! This sums up where I am at in life.
I do drive that far weekly , plenty of catching within an hour of me.
It also has lots to do with the company on the other end.
I’d drive 5 hours one way to see some peeps!

the crew I hung with made the driving worthwhile for sure

For myself no. Just not enough to get me excited. I don’t get anymore excited with a 3pounder (though I don’t believe I have ever caught one) than a standard 2lber. Now if it was a 10lb crappie I’m all in and east bound an down.

Im completely different with deer hunting though. I will travel 8 hours to chase a better class of animal. But I’m not talking going from a 120” buck to a 125 or 130” either. I’m talking 160+. A giant buck coming down the pipe gives me a feeling in my soul that a lesser buck just can’t. Doesn’t matter if he’s wise beyond his years or the stud in the area. For whatever reason crappie don’t do that to me. I chose quantity of action over quality.

I got a question now!!!! If you "incorrectly" reported the driving time... how do we know the you don't "incorrectly" report your ketches.

After many years of 600 miles a day, I would do it. One requisite would be planning ahead so that I was ready for the ride. The people on the other end would have to be good, the fishing possibilities good, and the equipment up to the task. Days get long when breakdowns put a bummer on the trip. Sleep isn’t an issue, I’ll do enough of that when I’m called home. Food not a consideration either, I’m not gonna starve either. Good trips with good people live on for many years and knowing that, I would have been anxiously waiting at the end of the driveway wondering why you’re late.
