you know what bugs me worse? all the old men @ the lock & dams were just tearing white crappie out of the water. I used the same lures as them, the same techniques (as best as i could mimic), fished around the same depths, fished by stumps, everything i could think of and not even a nibble. Just a dumb asian carp snagged in the eye (that's the second time...why do i always snag them in the eye?)

It looks like a blast to pull out those crappie....however i don't think i would eat what comes out of the Muddy like they do.

The fish would stay out of trouble if it could just keep its fool mouth shut.
Turns out there is a lot I should be learning from the fish.
