• HEY SLAB..........GIVE A MAN A FISH

    Ed,

    They say give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. I have been sharing crappie dot com with my pastor a lot. For his 30th pastoral anniversary he wanted to learn how to catch crappie. He has been a lifetime largemouth Bass fisherman and therefore would always release them and BUY his table fish at the fish store. I have been teaching him knots, rig setups and making soft plastics for him based on what crappie dot com has taught me. In honor of that teaching he finally caught two crappie. I am putting this ad in the souvenier booklet journal to let others know about this teaching website and this community. Just thought you would like to know.

      Here is another preacher friend of mine , Rev. Jonathon Edwards, who I got hooked on crappie fishing and checking out this website. He now lives in Tampa. He used to fish for Marlins and Blues on the Chesapeake Bay. Now he is a crappie fisherman and checks out this site once in a while. I am so thankful for this teaching site and I use it often to reach and TEACH OTHERS.

      I also enjoyed going to the library and looking for magazines and books about fishing to share with our students. When I became a building principal I started a hooked on fishing not drugs youth group called PYP...Positive Young People. Now in my 70's I am still endeavoring to teach people about Crappie fishing. Now in this electronic age I mostly use E-books, You Tube and Crappie dot com forums to teach P.E.A.C.E. (People Experiencing and Active Caring Environment) and fishing.

      Wow! "They say give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." Mark 1:17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

      Thanks Ship, you are a true disciple of crappie fishing. It's something to be said about fishing when 6 of the 12 disciples were fishermen: Peter, James, John, Andrew, Phillip and Simon. Could have been more??

      Amen BassCat 21. We all need to be reminded of that. I'll bet they would have loved Crappies too.

      Yes my friend. That is what it says in the B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth)
