Many of us caught limits regularly for many years . Now with social media and new electronics the lakes are being pushed to the limit . Even those guys that did not fish Crappie are chasing them . Many just Crappie fished in the spring and the high teck stuff has made it easier . Never saw so many new Crappie guides after they got livescope . Will not do any good for a few to catch and release when lakes are full of fishermen . Going to be tough for the Fisheries guys to develop a plan so our lakes won't be fished out . True they still have to bite but with people crowding the lakes year round it may hurt with high limits . I predict fishing to get tougher for sure if limits are not reduced and people return to work .Anyone that follows Crappie tournaments knows the weights have gone up . If you have not seen the high number of boats on your lake then your lucky . The electronics will just get better and fishing pressure won't slow down till catching falls off
