I’m a longline trolling fanatic. I’ve been doing it for nearly 6 years and in those years I’ve developed my own style. I advise my readers early on to develop their own. I’ve found that what works for me may not work for other fishermen. It took hours and hours of on the water practice for me to become confident enough to skip the live bait.
My belief is that if you present that soft plastic to enough active fish, sooner or later you’re going to get bit. I hunt schools of fish. I then try to figure out what will trigger the active fish. I feel and urgent need to mention the equipment I use in my presentation.

The day started of with a bang with Eva Rambo weighing in a 2.98 lb Crappie. The fish are definitely out there because the day before Trenton Lambert weighed in one weighing 3.21. I'm telling you, these waters "got game". Plus these St. Johns River Crappie are beautiful, just take a look at them.
I was invited to attend the Crappie Masters Tournament "Media Day" event being held here in Deland Florida on the St. Johns River. Of course I jumped at the opportunity. Billbob had left the day before but he was still there in spirit (see photo above)! I fished with Brad Meyer and Dave Pfoutz and we killed them!
I've packed the prizes I'll be giving out for the winners of the "best picture taken at the event" contest. A little background, I posted this earlier in the voting on the date thread:
"I'm bringing the Master of Ceremonies (Sir Billbob) with me Saturday and we're gonna fish in the morning. We will be done by 1:30 PM and we will be at the Crescent SUNRISE Boat Ramp to take pictures and give out stuff at 2pm. Stuff is: 2016 calendars, and a prize for best picture. I will be taking pictures of who-ever wants me to take their picture (with fish) and I will decide on a winner at 3 Bananas (later when we eat). Must be there at 3 naners to win. There will be a first and maybe second place, and even a third place, we will see. Best picture is gonna be totally subjective. Bring pets, wives, sons, daughters, who knows what will make you win.

Bobby Garland's new 1.25 inch Itty Bit Slab Slay'R imitates a variety of preferred crappie meals, ranging from insects to minnows.
TULSA, Okla. (Jan. 13, 2016) - While it was American rock band the Eagles who recorded "Take It To The Limit" years ago, Bobby Garland's Itty Bit Slab Slay'R is likely going to have another group, crappie anglers, singing a modified version along the lines of "take it for a limit".
