I'm opening up the floor for requests on what to post for number 5K. Should it be a new post, or should I just bump something in my history that people are dying to reread. Maybe I should reveal some of my many fishing secrets like worming the minnow on from the tail to the head if the fish are short striking. When I offered such advice up in the minner forum,it was met with much disdain, and also with a long explanation of how crappie do not strike, but merely suck the bait in. I am still in pursuit of the crappie that has enough suction to inhale my bandit 300 at 1.7 while being pulled with a 2000lb boat. I suspect this fish may possibly be a state record. However, it may be that all crappie big and small possess the ability to create such powerful suction. If this is true, shouldn't there be an Oreck strain of crappie? Possibly on my next outing, I will troll a bowling ball to see if a fish while producing such powerful suction will stick to it. If I pull up an 8 inch slab stuck to the bowling ball, it will be confirmed that crappie just inhale and do not strike and that indeed, an Oreck strain does exist. It seems lately that I have been fishing in the lake with the Bill Clinton strain of crappie (those that don't inhale), but it may be that I'm just a bad fisherman. Carol and I were fortunate to get in on some of the Whooping strain of Crappie on lake Dardanelle. When you pull one of these whooping crappie to the surface they make a sound similar to "WHOOHOO". Of course I could offer other tips on post number 5k like how to stay stealthy while fishing. Slipping quietly up to the brush pile and snatching out slabs and then slipping them quickly over the side and into the cooler before on lookers realize you have caught a fish. As I demonstrated this to Carol on Dardanelle, she quickly pointed out that yelling "WHOOHOO" when I caught one kind of defeated the purpose of being stealthy. It was the fish Carol, it was the fish! Some women...

Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
If you like sucking fish, perhaps you need to go to Destin and watch the fishermen/women out on the pier. I watched a kid stick a fish onto one of the walkway lights. The fish had suckers on the top of his head to attach himself to sharks for a free ride. How come you didn't come by our spot at camp? I stayed up till 12:30 with guitar waiting to sing with you. DP
