What a wonderful surprise this Christmas...my wife gave me (us) two half day trips with Darryl. Actually this is kind of a reverse gift. She's a fairly new crappie hound who's got the bug bad but has never really "gotten into 'em." She looks over my shoulder at times when I'm on crappie.com...has a fit at the photos CEB, LA Stumpjumper, Darryl, Jerry and others post. She's got it bad...and

Darryl I understand she's talked to you a couple of times and apparently has attempted to get you to guarantee with your own blood that she/we will limit both days. LOL...I don't hold you to this...but she's a very focused women who's got crappie on the brain in a bad way.

It's be great fun regardless. What a wonderful gift. Looking forward to meeting you and sharing the joy on watching my loving wife of 22 years catch a few nice crappie. See you on the 13th and 14. Will be in touch.

Merry Christams all...on this cold, wet day.
