I had a guy in my office today comment on a bass I have on my wall. I said “yeah, I really only crappie fish now”. He tells me about how his buddy is catching lots three pounders and some four pounders in a nearby lake…. I was able to keep myself from blurting out “no they’re not” and responded with a simple “show me the scales”.

A 3 pounder is definitely a trophy.
Maybe livescope was in use to catch such trophy size fish but more likely another fish tale
And your not telling us the name of the lake, come on man....LOL
Was he talking Crappie or Bass ? :fish:rolleyes::popcorn

Like you, lots of guys say “only crappie fish now”. I wonder why? Is it too much hassle to keep up with gear, etc. ? Pure love of crappie challenge or preferred table fare? Though I prefer crappie fishing, the tug on a wacky worm or blow up on a topwater is equally exciting as the “thump”.
Crappie community definitely superior to bass guys IMO…maybe that’s it.

I do need to diversify my fishing some in pursuit of other species. I may go back to a little bass fishingas well in summer
You are right about that. I’ve never met or talked to a crappie fisherman that wasn’t ready to help any way they could. Most bass fisherman won’t help at all.Quote:

Bass fishing is a douche-fest. It’s more about have the best gear money can buy, than it is catching fish.
My brother was sitting on the bank the other day, waiting for a bream bite, and a couple of bass holes coasted by on a $50,000 boat. They looked over at him and he heard one say to the other, “Bait and wait!”, and they proceeded to laugh hysterically to each other.
I told my brother, “I guess they don’t like to eat fish.”
As stated in another thread bass will bite anything that moves.
Edit
I automatically thought bass boat. But with todays high boat prices that could have very well been a $50,000 jon boat
