Them feet have tromped up many a mess a crappie for folks. I tried my best to imitate him on landing the fish, but my little short arms just couldn't cut it Net was only used once, that being on a catfish that wanted to play slab crappie. You know the folks on the bow and stern could have at least yelled incoming when they where yanking those slabs in the boat, but no, it was a thump then a crappie come flying by your head.
