The uncle who taught me to fish for crappie used to tell me that if I wasn't going to mounta big crappie in the 2 to 3 pound range, to throw it back because big crappie produce big crappie. I used to never catch that many to worry about and my house looks like wild kingdom with all the mounts. I also use a guide a lot on Weiss Lake and he tells me the exact same thing that my uncle used to tell me years ago. If we catch a 2 pounder or larger, he ask us to put it back if we arn't going to mount it. Any truth to this and does anyone else do this. I am not judging anyone so if you slayem, more power to you. I just want to see what everyones opinion on the subject is.
