    I would have messed him up with the electric fillet knife for sure.

    Exclamation Hey FF......years ago

    I used to catch a lot of small Watts Bar Smallmouth with that same problem. DNR says it's either a genetic defect, or possibly a survived injury from predator birds or fish. They were so prevalent that we nicknamed them "humpies".

    And what do we have lying about, there in your boat ?? I see a few jigs, bottle of juice, rod handle, what appears to be a rod holder base lying loose on the carpet, and what's that other thingy there -- is that a TV REMOTE ?? ...LOL!! Hey, they have DVD/TV's in vehicles ... why not boats ? :D ..............cp

    Crappiepappy he should be more careful, now everyone knows his secret sauce and that if he goes fishing with you he'll mark your spots.
    Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
    Teach a man to fish, he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

    We caught one like that last year; don't know what may have been the cause, but aquarium fish can have spinal curvature from fish tuberculosis. The disease poses no threat to man. - Roberta

    Certainly has a hitch in it's get along. If that configuration was on a grub it would be advertised as having more action. No wonder it took sauce and a Tv to catch it.

    That's hairspray so I look good while fishing, the controller to my fish catching robot (I have had one for 10 years) That appears to be a rod holder base, but its a mount for a bird house I use during the week while I'm at work. :D After I thinking about it, I have caught bass with scoliosis like this small crappie.
    You know I rarely use that gps, I was just playing with it to see how it did. I didn't like the results and think I'm gonna buy a new one. That one is older before WAAS and it don't get you very close. But I can take cords. off it and punch them into my new one. At this stage in life I can remember and find stuff pretty well without
