The fish wasnt what I would call a serious slab / 15 inch fish, but it was a winner

as far as being out of my league with the Crappie Masters, its a professional turney, and Im clearly not a professional............. Ill be the first to admit to that, especially being I have never once fished in a turney (short of our slabfests), so jumping stright into the Masters is a hell of a reach for sure.

My thoughts are its a little less then a year away, my ticket is punched, its close to my neck of the woods, and I havent a thing to lose Im in LAST PLACE............... looking to get lucky and move up

Ill be giving my buddie Mike a call, thats his home turf. If anyone will know where the fish are active.....its gonna be Speckanator

Never expected to win this thing with a 15 inch fish............but if you snooze ya lose and Im thankful I did sign up.

Next year when it rolls back around Ill push as many of my CDC buddies as possible to sign up and see if we can keep this thing in the CDC family.

If it wasnt for Phantom posting up his information....................... I would never have thought I would fish a turney, let alone something this big.

I have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Going dancing with the pros LOL
