Having fished for Bass for years I got tired of fishing heavy tackle, grinding on and on for 6 bites a day, and inattention would cause to miss 2 or 3 of those. Even then I began downsizing and leaving they heavy stuff home. Crappie and Bluegill have always had a place in my heart that grew even stronger once I picked up a fly rod. Since learning the patterns and methods to catch Crappie consistently I enjoy them the most, especially on the table. I also like to teach and pass on what I have come to know through others generosity, and that helps keep my second seat in the boat full more. I still revert and fish for others but the Crappie have my attention. Heavy tackle still doesn't get my attention much anymore but it's still in the rack, never know when you might stumble into a gold mine. The surprise fish caught while Crappie fishing keeps me interested enough to make a trip without the rodholders and long rods.
