Well let me be the first to say Welcome to the boards SLB. All I can tell ya is there are lots and lots of lurkers that are probing the boards picking up the breadcrumbs as to where the fish are biting and how to go about catching them. Those lurkers wont join CDC and help contribute anything to help other fellow CDCers when theyre struggling. You have go to see if from both sides of the fence. Maybe if you start sharing some info about your catches or techniques then maybe people wont mind so much helping you out with your PM's and questions. Also, try and join in whenever there is a get together so you get the chance to actually meet some of the guys and ladies. I think you'll find out that everybody has the same general likes when it comes to crappie fishing. As far as the stickers...send Slab (the owner) a PM asking for a sticker and I'm sure he'll get you one in the mail.Thumbs Up BTW, dont get too thick skinned if somebody doesnt answer all your PM's or posts. It happenes to all of us. Just remember, a member at CDC sees your post count (which currently is "1") and all he thinks is here's another "newbie" that wont post anything but is looking for information thru PM's.
