Looks like Doug is fishing in the Crappie Masters tournament at Rend Lake Illinois this Saturday, the 4th. Looks like a wet day, but I'm sure he's prepared. Just wishing Doug a safe and successful day.

Congrats...well done! :cheers2
Had a great time in less then perfect conditions always fun fishing with Doug and we are showing a lot of people we are to be taken serious. Thank you for all the support and kind words, the people here have always been very nice and very helpful!!!! I had a guy tell me at the tourney you couldn’t pull cranks on rend lake, I wonder if he still believes that?

He must only fish the very north end (each side of the fork).... It would probably be pretty tough there but there are plenty of other areas that trolling can work...Quote:

Justin and I both have to sit down and get a Pico crank order together. Realistically we probably lost 20 PICOs yesterday alone. We stuck our noses and the cranks into some nasty cover but made it work.
I had low expectations when Justin and I talked about fishing some regional events. We have now qualified for the Classic in both Crappie USA and CrappieMasters as well as guaranteeing we will now have to register as Pro Division due to our winnings.
Mitch at Pico had better stay stocked up. We’ve turned heads in both tournaments by making a technique work where folks said it wouldn’t. I’m really looking forward to ACT on KY Lake in June as well as some others I might not have considered.
Thanks to Justin for all his hard work with culling and keeping severely bleeding crappie going to weigh-in.

Your success confirms what I already knew......that being I desperately need to hire you and at least attempt to learn the methods of your technique because no doubt, they work!!
MR, Justin, great job. Man, you guys adapted well and showed that your techniques are here to stay. I guess it's good and bad about having to go to be a 'Pro' team, but I think you can handle this. Good luck in your future tournaments and look forward with me and my brother's trip May 17th with you. My brother has fished some, but not much. It's his birthday gift from me and he would be excited even if could catch one fish.
Great showing for the state!!

What were the top colors for y'all? Glad to see y'all putting up good numbers and making a good showing. I'm sure it's going to inspire others to give the tournament's a try, even if it's with local clubs.

With the rain and cloudy day I would say red craw was very good along with geezer clown and awesome. Biggest fish came on a bone orange! Early it was all dark colors like the craw but later in the day they seemed to just hit about anything we had out
