Bill,

It is always great to finally put a face to a name! I'm glad that you and your wife had a good time. If these camps were all about catching fish, we would have failed a long time ago

I've met a good number of people over the last several years that I consider great friends. People that would bend over backwards to help each other in any way that they can. Be willing to give up fishing tips, secrets, and spots, and even a seat in their boats. Although we only get together a couple times a year (as a group) many of us contact each other and plan fishing outings outside of a normal crappie event. We have a unique opportunity with Crappie dot com that allows us to tap into local experts all over the US. Showing up on a body of water and asking locals can be a challenge. Having a person on that side of the state that might be familiar with the area you intend to visit is a great scouting tool.

I'm glad we now have someone on your side of the state!
