Thread: Wizzie comes out

I have been lurking for a while now and think it is time to come out.
I am a member but don't post that much cause I am still trying to learn the crappie thing. I have bass fished every tournament you can name but never got into the pan fish. Have seen and fished beside some of you guys at Toronto and Big Hill and other lakes. It is time to buy a decal of Crappie.com and be part of your group or try to be. I'm a KU and K-State fan since my nephew coaches KU football. Believe it or not, I have caught 17" crappie at Thayer City Lake West, Big Hill and Toronto. Where I fish is not a big secret but the fish are, seem to be around the corner from Mann's Cove boat ramp. Don't have GPS or all the goodies you guys have. Have run into Chet and our paths have crossed many times at Toronto.There are enough fish for everybody and would be glad to tell you where my spot is. I ask nothing in return. I am not a tree dipper or a jig fisherman. Just like to fish. Being retired I can go any where any time. As I want to learn you guys secrets. Send a PM and I will respond. Wizzie

With that title I didn't know quite what to expect.

Wish I could catch a 17" crappie.

You certainly don't need a decal for this group of prevaricators. Just by signing on you have already met the high standards required for this group. :D

With that info you just may be faced with a quandary as to which color decal you will choose --- will it be purple or blue. :D

Those are nice size crappie, fishing for bass when you caught them. What part of the area are you from, this old grey hair retiree is from Leavenworth. Welcome to the board.

Wizzie I am from Coffeyville...Roomed with 2 guys from Chanute at KU a few years back when I was still in school....I do not know what I was thinking. I have fished Big Hill alot but mostly for bass with my dad. I never knew of Thayer City Lake West, but also heard about it on a bass fishing board....What size is that lake? I will have to look it up.

Glad to have ya Wizz. I'm in Chanute every Friday delivering nuts and Bolts to Kustom Signals.
