Thread: Crappie masters

Shiners were used by several of the teams

Most them tourney folks have boats wrapped full of stickers and shirts full of patches of sponsors of different jigheads, roadrunners, beetlespins, crappie nibblet, etc. and then they use shiners. Use about 40 poles too

My son and I finished 14th and had a great time; must have culled about 30 that was around a pound. 2nd through 15th was really tight. This is my Kingston; my grandson in the picture with Chuck and me.

Congrats I see you had your lucky charm with you!

Is there any video out there of this tournament?
