Friendly Reminder! Hope to see a few of you there Tues night
I attended the meeting at the Litton Center and am totally in favor of the regulation changes. The meeting was very well done and the facts presented absolutely support the code adjustments proposed. If approval is granted it will be interesting to see if fishermen will see the vital importance of their role in what is trying to be accomplished. This will work if and only if a substantial number of the under 9 inch crappie (Particularly black crappie under 9) are kept when caught and not returned to the lake. I plan on having a lot of crappie to eat at my house. A big thank you to Eric and all others that made this meeting possible.
I had planned on attending but instead got to work late. Hope for some good feedback from people who where there

Joedog finally has a chance for a limit.
Kind of depressing to find out the lake has stunted fish, was hoping the problem was fishing pressure.
First year after the reg change half of the eight inchers will be gone, should be interesting.
Did they say anything about the shad population? The whites shouldn't be as stunted if the problem is vegetation and insects.
The white crappie are growing well. They reach 9+" in 3 years. The black crappie die out at 8 or 9 years of age with only 2% ever reaching 9".
