    Doing research today. I know those crappies were glad I did not have a pole in my hand. LOL

    Where were you? I have been to the Texas Parks and Wildlife aquarium in Athens Texas and it's pretty awesome. They have some huge black bass and catfish as well and plenty of crappie. I think when I was there they had the state record or close that was like a little over 18 pounds and caught while crappie fishing. I hope my memory is right.

    I think I'd have to find a way to drop a jig in there.

    Tennessee aquarium in Chatanooga. This is the Reelfoot Lake exhibit. I like the Atlanta aquarium so much better with the fish swimming over the entire ceiling.

    I know you enjoyed that. I really enjoyed going to that Athens Texas Aquarium, really nice place. Something about seeing them monster catfish and of course the giant bass since I am an old bass guy.

    As a kid I caught all the bream, crappie, bass that I could. I didn't care what they were as long as I was catching them. Heck we even got into catching gar because they were really big down where I come from. I caught some of the biggest crappie of my life in a small lake on our local country club course. Caught my first over 5 pound bass out of that lake.

    Crud, got a bit off topic here, sorry.

    BTW Ship your looking pretty darn healthy your self guy!
