Butterball-not because I'm fat-because my family raises butterball turkeys.
I graduated from Mizzou with fish and wildlife degree and decided to stay in Columbia as an Environmental Consultant. Don't get to crappie fish as much anymore (easier to blow off class than work). I usually fish MTL and Truman lake, LOZ in early spring before the big boats tear that lake up. Also have started juglining in the last year or so. Look for us in a black and gold Nitro w/ tracker 115.
PS. I'll be fishing truman out of Osage Bluff this weekend-look out for my yellow noodles.

Good fishin

Hello All,

My names Ronnie, 24,I live in Warrensburg, MO. Got a wife and a 4 year old boy and 4 month old daughter. Work as a 911 Dispatcher,Emergency Medical Technician and dirt racing crew chief. I pretty much just bounce around fishing anywhere where I can get a bite from the bank. Mostly private lakes and small conservation lakes, sometimes I hit truman or ozarks and hit the docks or bank. My dad got me into fishing when I was really young, hope to do the same with my kids, and I pretty much just fish for crappie, I like to eat em, therefore thats what I go after. I do most of my fishing in early spring and early fall when we aint racing. I am also a die hard Alabama Crimson Tide fan

And for BILLWAUB --- ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Hi all...my name is Dan. I'm 35, work in the IT industry, and am married with 2 young daughters. The girls love to fish too. We live in the Liberty area, and fish Smithville and Truman regularly. Last year, we bought a place near Talley Bend, so I'm learning that area. At Smithville, I spend most of my time north of W. It's been a slow spring on both lakes for me....can't wait for the summer pattern to kick in. You can spot my rig...green Yukon and Crestliner Sportfish with 115 Merc. Be sure to say hi if you see me.
And I swear, I'll make it to Camp one of these times. I absolutely love having some cold ones and BS'ing around the fire.

Good afternoon everyone! My name is Jack B. and I live in Liberty Mo. fish mostly Smithville and Truman, both the lake and below the dam. I have a Lowe Stinger 190 with a Merc 90. I am 60(ouch) years old and divorced. I"ll take ANY advice you folks want to give on crappie fishing! Look forward to conversing with you all.

Welcome to jackb, kcdan and anyone else that's new. Many of the guys are at crappie camp this weekend, so the stories will really start to fly in a couple of days. Some of us have just could not get away this weekend.

Welcome, again.
