Thanks for the tips! My fishing buddy claimed a crappie tried to bite off his finger and threw it back in with four backflips!

Thanks for you input on the subject, I think a lot like your post and agree with all of it. I have been catching crappie all summer long in a few areas. Most fish have been catch and release. The fish are starting to move because instead of catching around 100 each time, I now only catch 20 or 30 in the same areas. Great report.

Great story and great pics. On catch and release use barbless hooks or smash down the barb and then it is easier on the fish

I released tons of small ones. Here on my home lake we never seem to have problems except way too high #'s of small fish. the limits set by game dept usually protect waters from over harvest. Best not to touch fish anymore than you have to to release them in good shape
