Very Nice! I'm all in...

Great idea! But I have to catch one before I can release it! LOL.

Well then, now you got a reason to go. That fish ain't gonna learn by herself. What you waiting for? You're burning daylight.

Dang, that one is gonna lay a million eggs for sure. Good job.

Hahahahaahahaha she was a VERY fat girl!!!!! Hahahaha

Attachment 262054 Sorry for the sideways pic. This was the biggest fish I had ever caught. She went 2.9 after this pic I released her back so maybe she will either produce a bunch more slabs, or make another fishermans dreams come true. Either way I have a picture and the memory of catching her.

Good job guys

I was blessed with another memorable day of single pole crappie fishing in North Ms. I got to the Lake with No Name around 2:00pm and left at 5:30pm.

Attachment 262074

With plenty of crappie in the freezer I really enjoy catch-n-release.

Attachment 262075

Maybe I will get to see them again.

Attachment 262076

Maybe you will get to see them again.

Attachment 262077

All the bank fishermen were making disparaging remarks...

Attachment 262078

I don't think they approved of my catch-n-release.

Attachment 262079

Even the fish seemed a little confused at their sudden liberty...

Attachment 262080

I ended the afternoon with a total of 7 catch-n-releasers and an additional 4 under the 12" limit.

Attachment 262085

Adios mi Amigos!

Attachment 262092

I hope many fisherman here on Crappie.com also practice catch-n-release. Join in the fun... Who knows you may even win the contest!

Attachment 262351

And, I taught her and several others the values of verifying your food before snatching. So, I released them......

Took my cousin to catch some pigs. This was his biggest to date. When I told him we were gonna release her he never questioned me. I explained that we had to leave the females this time of year due to the spawn. Fish was 15.5" and about to pop. I couldn't give you a definite weight bc I don't have scales..but I'd say she was between 2.5 and 3...I will be getting some scales soon

I released all mine before they get in boat.
