Final day from Ray Roberts.
Not Crappie but still cool!!
Maybe Crappie fishing will get to that level some day.
Sad, but probably not in my lifetime.

From a Life Member of B.A.S.S., I certainly hope crappie fishing never obtains that dubious level.Quote:

Didn’t they use to hold the Classic early in the year (Jan/Feb)? Was it delayed because of COVID?
I think you’re right.Quote:

I only recognize a few of the anglers.
One guy from Indiana but he didn’t make the cut.
Most of the ones I remember went to Major League Fishing Circuit I think.
Guess it pays more. Don’t know.

I don’t understand how the different “tours” work, but the MLF has the best format and rules, IMO.Quote:

Been a bass tournament of some sort in my town every weekend since the first of March
I too hope crappie fishing doesn't get to that level either
my good friend has a house on that lake and the yard goes right to the corp land and then the water.
said they were waiting with bells on to see them guys fishing ,the funny part is ....
they dont even fish :Rofl
Not a B.A.S.S. member, but I too hope it never reaches that level. Theres at least 4-5 tournies every week on LKN. The glitterjets have gotten out of controlQuote:

I like that description! :ThumbsUp
I knew exactly what you meant, surprisingly.
I have had them blast past me in a no wake zone hollering I am fishing a tournament. Obviously that must entitle one to break the law
Yeah, they've been known as "glitter rockets" for a looooooong time. :biggrinQuote:

I just checked the final results.
Out of the 54 anglers listed, I recognized 3 names.
Same for me.
Guess most went to MLF.

You crappie guys like to throw stones when many of the advancements you love so much came straight from the Bass Fishing industry.
I compare it to hunting, I gave up gun hunting long ago and only archery hunt. Do I make fun of the big bad deer hunters, NO to each his own! Enjoy the outdoors!
Wow,
Didn’t start the thread to bash anyone about anything!!
Just saying that I hoped Crappie fishing could get to the level of something like The Bassmaster Classic.
The money part is kinda what I was referring to.
I know the ACC seems to have the biggest payback being an aluminum Ranger and Crappie Masters pay pretty good too at their Classic but nothing relating to crappie fishing is in that caliber that I know of.
Enough said by me!!
PS. Jet skis (lake lice) are still a pain in the behind I think. Lol

Young people would follow my houseboat for miles jumping the wake behind it. Go airborne sometimes.
