Doug, you forgot G-Daddy Baits Sponsorship of a $25 gift certificate to be given via Random Draw to one entrant. Thanks.

Sorry Frank, I didn't know. I fixed it.

Doug

I hope i get it! it will make me feel like a crappie in a brush pile, it will just start the feeding frenzy at gdaddy.com! you know i will not stop at $25!

I just talked with WSD, and he is on some great fish. This will be a great tourney to come too. The weights should be high. WSD said he would be fishing this weekend if anyone needed some pointers, he would be more than happy to share if you contact him. I will see you guys the 16th!

There will great prizes. They will be raffled off, not just to who wins the most. So who ever enters, will have a great opportunity to take something home. The fishing is spotty but they do exist. I went down Saturday, and put 7 in a cage for next Saturday. Some BBQ could twist my arm to tell what tree they are tied up too!

Man TC- those are 7 nice fish! Hope you tied up some minners with em so they don't go hungry.

I would offer you some BBQ but I know how delicate your tummy is and I did use a pinch of cayenne in the rub. (-;

Fishers and I have a cabin on the lake. If anyone else is looking for a place to stay, we have room if you want to bring a cot or something.

I first want to say a big thank you to everyone who contributed to the Wister Okie crappie.com tournament. The tournament was a huge success due to the work of Robert (WSD), the sponsors who contributed, and the fishermen and fisherwomen who participated. Robert set up the check in and weigh in site and garnered most all the sponsors. Our Sponsors were Bonehead Tackle, Ken Roberson (Starfish), Timmy Tom Jigs, Crooked Hook Bait & Tackle, Outlaw Rods, G-Daddy Baits, and Mark Goines. If I forgot anyone let me know. A big thank you to Fisherman's Net for hosting the check-in and weigh-in, they opened at 0430 with a breakfast buffet. Here is a run down on sponsors contributions: once again correct me if I left anyone out or got the contribution wrong.

Bonehead Tackle: 4 rods, 25 tackle packs
Ken Roberson : 2 Huckabee Rods
Timmy tom Jigs: 2 tackle boxes of various weed less jigs
Crooked Hook : 1 Huckabee Rod, 1 Outlaw, and 1 quantum reel
Outlaw Rods: 2 Outlaw rods
G-Daddy Baits: $25 gift certificate
Mark Goines: 2 Leatherman tools

We figured it all up and that is over $1500 worth of prizes!

Thank you to everyone!!

Nmolina and I had a great time at Wister. Huge thanks to all the sponsors, Fisherman's Net and to WSD for all the donations, Hosting the tournament and all the hard work that went into making this tournament happen. We never found any big fish or any schools of fish. We picked up most of our fish in 3.5-4' of water on Friday and Saturday fishing cedars and a few pecans that someone had put in the coves. Once we got 1 or 2 fish it was time to move on. Not all piles produced. I mostly used Single Timmy Toms with a Pearl/Chart bait and Slabslobber. Tried several other colors but didn't have much luck. Picked up 4 off minnows about 2 feet under cork sat morning but the fish were not much bigger then the minnows we were using. We learned a lot about that lake and now have a much better idea of the layout which will help for the classic. Thanks again to everyone who had a part in making this tournament a great one. Cant wait to get back on it in Sept.

That's is some really good fish especially for the middle of July. Nice job fellas even if that dang old Fireman put the pictures sideways.

Brian and I caught our fish in 4-7 fow spider rigging stumps, using a single minnow, on a hook, 6 inches above a 1/4 oz weight. We only caught 15 fish total and 10 keepers total.

Doug, (Odie)
I appreciate you posting how you and Brian (EB) catch your fish. This helps us less experienced crappie fishermen get better. Thanks
