So when did Crappie Camp become a financially motivated event? I thought it was supposed to be about meeting other people that love the sport, not just a promotion strategy to fill rooms at someone's new hotel?
Is anybody interested in "2014 Lake Greeson Fall Crappie Camp" T-shirts? If so, let us know what size you want and we'll get them ordered. Not sure on the price yet but we'll keep them reasonable - hopefully around 12 bux.

How many Crappie Camps have you organized, Cmj? The Crappie Camps that I've organized on Lake Greeson and the few Crappie Tournaments that I've attended, have always been about promoting crappie fishing and the businesses, organizations and government agencies that support and/or benefit from crappie fishing. I believe that even Crappie.com owner, Ed Moes, felt like Crappie.com might benefit when he's attended our Crappie Camps and I doubt that any of the companies like BnM Pole Company, Arkie Jig Company, TTI Blakemore and the like would donate their products to such events if they didn't believe their companies would benefit financially.
Fall Crappie Camp On Lake Greeson welcomes anyone that is interested in crappie fishing, whether or not they reserve a room at The Daisy Motel. And, by the way, the Daisy Motel has been around since the Little Missouri River was dammed up to form Lake Greeson and I've been at the motel for about a year and a half.

Calm down everyone. Jerry is a stand up guy and holds a great crappie camp. He's held these events before even when he has not owned a motel, so there's certainly no ill intention here on anyones part. I just wish I could attend, but I already had plans to be at MS camp that weekend.
