BnM Slab Master Crappie Saver
Bass Pro has the BnM Crappie Saver, can you order on-line or purchase from Memphis store. Sportsman Warehouse in Southaven will have them too. Neat little toy that measures, estimates weight and age class, and also let's you safely deflate the air bladder of a fish pulled from deep water. The idea came from Ronnie Capps, he told me a story about catching non keeper crappie on Percy Priest in 40ft of water. Because they were under 10" they were required by law to throw the fish back. Instead of killing a bunch of fish and letting them float on the surface to die because there air bladders had expanded. Ronnie popped the air bladders so the fish would live, and they did. The problem was holding this little slimy critters between his knees and fizzing the air bladder with a 2" #8 hypodermic needle. Thus the idea for a tool that would hold the fish while you pop them so they can live. Cool idea from the true Crappie Jedi Ronnie Capps.
