I just wanted to personally thank all the people involved with the Grizzly Jig Show for the outstanding work that they do to make this event happen. The Mansfield's go above and beyond to make this a great event. If I had to guess there were over 20 people giving seminars. Everyone from Wally Marshall to Charlie Bunting and you cannot forget about Capps and Coleman, plus the hummingbird crew putting on demonstrations each day. There was also one of our own Arkansas pro staffers there to give Wally a hand. You would be hard pressed to find another fishing event for crappie fisherman that you could walk away from with as much knowledge as you would receive at the jig show. The best part of it is that each and every pro and pro staffer makes themselves available to each participant after their presentations. I would like to thank the sponsors as well. Without the great sponsors none of this could have taken place. I do not know which sponsors are affiliated with cdc so I will not list them all, but I do appreciate everything that they did as well.

It was great to see RCC, Mrs. RCC, Laserbeam, Creekslick and others from this forum.

If anybody out there wants to learn a great deal about crappie fishing this is the place to be at the end of January. It is not just for people who spider rig it has everything from side pulling to dock shooting. As for those who said ,before the show, that it is too crowded during the seminars, I would like to say that this was Casie and I’s third year and yet has there been a seminar were it was standing room only including Capps and Coleman's and Wally Marshall's.


Hope to see you there next year and thanks again.
