The new bass master's has a cool
Article about California basement hand poured plastic. It's a good read. It's nice to see the little man get headlines. I read Bass Masters alot even though I only bass fish a couple days out of the year. It is a great magazine. I wish the crappie magizines would fallow the same lay out. I'm sooo tired of reading how Todd Huckabe does things or the top 10 crappie lures blah blah blah anyway it's a good read
wish i had a copy lol
Someday Snake River will be world famous too. Hope he does not forget all of his friends on this forum. If you believe that then it will happen. It is all according to your faith. G3 will have his own fishing show on the outdoor channel and Old Ship will buy a home on the water. I believe the report.
maybe it will take us to change crappie world yes I'm sure that they read a lot of our post they need to get out in the field more into more articles around the country. I paged through it but that's about it. Hopefully some day that we will have a great panfish magazine one I truly love was Michigan outdoors and they used to have a series on TV that I truly love. Hooray for the small man I hope that they do more and post more articles in bass Masters. I truly would love to see them do some articles awful fear say plastics for crappie fishermen .Quote:

It would definitely be fun. I would definitely love to do one nothing but crappie fishing in the US I do not know what type of sponsorship that of guy would get bought. I would truly love to see this. Yes I know that they have crappy TV already, but we do not see any of that out here. They need to put more panfish in on the outdoor Channel. I for one get tired of seeing bass fishing and if you seen one or two ago shows you have seen him all I consider most of them kind of boring, be in a dedicated bass fisherman myself I fish for largemouth for many years that Nin not get into tournaments. I did not consider myself that good will of do. I did a lot of field testing in my younger years. For many of the plastic companies out there. I thought there was another crappie fishing magazine. Maybe I am wrong. If anybody knows if Michigan outdoor magazine is still going please let me know . Even if I did shoot a TV series. I would definitely have to have you on one of my shows ship you remind me of a person very dear to me when I was a young man. His name was Gaya Randall he was considered the crappie King of the Northwest when I was about 13. I give him a jig. It was made out of dog hair. He was so amused with this jig that he took it in fished with it on a local TV show and it definitely made the whole show and I was really proud of this little jig. He fished the Columbia River sloughs and throughout the Northwest or crappie. I furnished him with many hand tied jigs over the years the is one person I will deeply miss it just a little story I wanted to share with everyone. By the way the dog hair was poodle champagne color.Quote:

My tv show was, in my dreams, in an urban setting reaching and teaching the youth to get hooked on panfishing and to stay away from drugs and gang violence. Well I never had a tv show but I have reached a few thousand youth. Now I try and help others on this forum with what little I know and I do mean little. I am impressed with the knowledge of db4d, Pappy, Skip, Russ, G3 and Mr. Paty. People would learn a lot if they just read these forums. Thank you for your friendship and the way you help others too. That is why you were nominated for and awarded the crappie.com man of the year award. Well Done!
I try to help others when I can Ship....But no thanks , I do not want a TV show, I don't want to be famous.....none of that stuff. I just like being what I am. The Lord has blessed me with his love ,and a good home, good family, good health, and good friends, and a promise of eternal life......I do not want or need anything else.
ship we all have a purpose in this world that we belong to and you are very blessed to have so many friends out there in to share your love of fishing with young people. I to have shared this with young people over the years. This is another story that you may enjoy I was fishing in a little lake in southern Oregon. I notices little boy was walking down the side of Lake with this beat up fishing pole to pole was taped up in the real was a mess. I asked the little boy how would you like a bran new fishing pole and a little tackle box. I told him to wait right there. I'll be right back I went over to my pickup and took out they fishing pole but tackle box and took it to the little boy must say the little boy was happy us little guy I've ever seen his father walked over to me and asked him why I did this for him ices someday he will be a man and remembered it's in may be. This will keep him from going down the wrong road and he will remember this for the rest of his life . If everyone out to reached out and touched one young person just think how much better this world would be in. That's why that we are in this world ship to sure our our love of fishing with other people.Quote:

I agree with y'all. I was luck enough to be surrounded by family that loved the outdoors. My dad gave me the love for fishing, crappie and lures. I think he tied in life's lesson onto our trips where I wouldn't even notice until it was to late and I was already headed down the right road. Funny how when your older it all comes together.
You are ok in my book too and a pretty good fisherman.Quote:

Wasn't the same as flinging baits but at least they had them.
Hopefully now that Jerry McKinnis and this group bought BASS from ESPN hopefully it'll get better but their gonna have a lot of work to do.
