"Gnats are gnats"???
Nice catch
It was posted in a thread last night that got deleted. The meaning was that Donnie's CrappieLogic Gnats are the real deal and catch fish the best. Similar products are good but our experience is that they just don't work as good as the real deal.Quote:

Totally agree with using what we like. A lot of fishing for me is using what I have confidence in. I'm no tournament guy and not that good at this crappie feeshing thing. I'm catching way more big fish since I started using Donnie's gnats. I'm catching lots of limits. I'm happy, happy, happy!Quote:

I have fished with both and my preference is more about who I buy from, Donnie has a fine product that he does personally.
That similar product was based on Donnie's so I would imagine it would also work well. I've always heard imitation is the greatest form of flattery:)Quote:

Really funny. At the Washington weigh in when they stuck the microphone in your face and asked how you did it, you said you caught them on "gnats".Quote:

Product or presentation? You be the judge.
In summary, it's not good manners to come on a thread and bash someone else's product.
Dang!!!
I prefer crappielogic myself. I know a thing or two about hand ties from fly-fishing. U can spot a good one from a mile away. And WB has movie star hair---I'm mean ugly

I believe we need to buy from the one who created the product not the one who copied it.Quote:

I'm old but I'm not ugly except in the morning when I get up or when I'm holding a big crappie and shivering at the same time.Quote:

Does anyone know exactly when and where gnats got started?Never heard em called gnats until i joined CDC in 2005,i met Randall Bloodworth from Grenada he kept mentioning gnats well we finally met at spring camp and he had some, well i had some and i had been useing and tying for the last 20yrs but i called mine streamers.We became good friends and would exchange ideas.Randall passed last yr. But i am glad to see Donald take them to the next level Good going.
Fished was something very similar in the green carp days 30 years ago, used he as a trailer on a 1 foot leader behind a big bait when fishing schooling fish in the summer.
Donnie,
Do you still have your facebook page? I want to send you a big fish picture of a 3lb+ that my wife caught two weeks ago on one of your gnats.
CrappieLogic all the way!
well my wife named them gnat's cause they look like a gnat she said. the only thing I ever done different is the name and tying them on a jighook with a 90 on it. thats it, the tippets,teasers and streamers have been around all my lifeQuote:

I would like to add this as well. confidence in your lures and presentation is 98% of crappie fishing. Capps and Coleman use straight abardeen gold minner hooks and they have won the crappie masters 7 times so i would imagine they have a lot of confidence in there set up and im sure they have never used a gnat.
also I would like to add I googled the word gnat the day I tied the first one and a teaser,streamer,or tippet never popped up so I decided to call my little hand tied sickle hook a gnat ...thats it ..big woop
I'll be coming to Sardis in just a few more days, are there any place close to the Dam. say within 15 mile or so, that I could pick up one of Donnie's kit box of Nats. I would love to give them a try.
