Ban The Trawlin

I have thought about it long and hard, and I have decided that since I single-pole 100% of the time, that we should ban all other methods of fishing. After all, single-poling is the only TRUE way to catch a fish. Soooooo........if you troll, stroll, slow roll, dip, flip, pitch, dip snuff and spit on your jig, push, pull, planer board, wake board, knee board, two-pole, three-pole, jigger pole, tight-line, long-line, short-line, limb-line, wind sock, knuckle drag, blind drag(Habib,) or any other method that I dont use, then you are not a true sportsman and are merely trying to fill your freezer, and are in no way enjoying what you are doing. So I say ban all methods that I dont use. This is the truth, and no need for further discussion. Thank you, that is all.

Wait, what about Feelay. He pulls up on a spot starts talking and the crappie jump in his boat....... Is that banned also.bawhahaha

:Rofl Bwahahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!! :Rofl

Absolutely...that is Crappie whisperin....completely anacceptable!!

And NO TOURNAMENTS.

And NO JIGS. Only minners. OK, jigs without barbs are ok.

And NO COMPUTERS for fishermen. Ever. See what they do with 'em?

I think I will use nets and dynamite and forget about the rods and reels. :Rofl

Can't argue with a man with dynamite. :Rofl

All I do is troll but I agree with you a hundred percent. We really should start a crappie Humane Society. If we saw anyone bothering them, we could put the law on em.

dont strain your brain there Christopher!!!!!!!! lol!!!!!!

:Rofl:Rofl

What about old phones?

Will my 10 ft jig pole be banned? Or do I need a 14 ft? What about the 12 footers?

How about crickets? I catch alot of crappie while bream fishin'.

That's odd. I catch a lot of bream on minners while crappie fishin'!

And CLEARLY only 11' poles should be used. Duh.

Well it's way....Way.....WAY too late for that, Gregory!! :Rofl

Fished for 51 years without trawlin. Where do we sign the petition. Fished 14 of those 50 without a boat. While were on this way of thinking, we should also do away with gas motors. It is hurting the environment, the shore line, and my attitude when they go by me too close:biggrin. What's up with this Christopher and Gregory stuff. I'm a bit concerned about where this thread is heading.

I think everyone has made some good points. Just goes to show you what sharp minds, when really put to use, can achieve.___________ What's a trawl? I think it's a big seine.

I think yas need to join PETA and just protect the fish, minnows, crawlers, crickets and mousies.. :Rofl They need the money for your membership. :Rofl. I'll stick with dynamite and nets.

Save a minner....use a Arky Shinee Hinee jig

What about spinning winged decoys? Cutdowns? flocked coot decoys?


Oh wait, this is the crappie thread :crazy:

Shinee Hinees are Tha Bomb!! But only when tied on 6-8lb Camo monofiliament Mr. Crappie line used in conjunction with a 10' Cherrywood(an old one, not the new ones,) or a 12' BGJP. Dass it.

got to be 10.5 to 11 foot. Ill always break 6 inches off the end of it then I wont be able to fish!

CMJ,

I appreciate your sense of humor, however I recently met a young man up around the Booneville area and while discussing the fish I had been catching on Blue Mtn spider rigging he informed me that the locals didn't appreciate my style of fishing....and that I should probably learn to pole fish or find another lake to fish on.....but he and his friends would not take kindly to seeing me on their lake. Being how we were a cemetery decoration event. I just smiled and said good to meet you and started talking to someone else.

Some folks don't get it till you explains it all to them.

I will continue to enjoy everyone's comments.

I DID try fly fishing when I was younger and my eyes worked. I had to get the TINNNIIEESSST hooks, though, and the bait stank worse than catfish bait. I never could get the dang flies to bite. Now crawdads? Stick, string, and bacon fat, and that was ANOTHER Story.

Where was I?

Let's just have a "crappie season" the only months you can fish are July and August.

I think you should have to go back to wooden boats and sculling paddles and no electric motors. back to the basics.

And don't forget "ONLY CANE POLES". None of the Fiberglass and IM6 crap..... and catgut for line.

You need to start Green Carp fishing Chris.:twocents

Gotta be a lil crazy to deal with these yahoos.

Well, like my ole buddy Merle says, Being crazy keeps me from going insane.

I love typing here, because it's usually very very difficult to talk with my tongue stuck so hard in my cheek................ :) Last time I said anything I really meant was "I DO", and I did, and I do! But lately, not so much! :)
