    Default Most days in a row with a limit?


    Several years back our local paper ran story about a local man who caught a limit of crappie every single day of the year. 365 limits in a calendar year. That means rain or shine, front coming or not, that man caught a limit every day.
    Mind you, here in east Texas we don't usually have a lot of real cold winter, but we get some 50" of rain a year on average.
    His streak struck me as quite a feat. Anyone here ever come close to that?

    While that is an impressive feat, that guy, if he kept those limits daily, had to eat a lot of fish or give them away to not be in violation of possession limits. What are the fish possession limits in Texas?

    It's very possible. I'm thinking of cedar creek lake and someone that owns a house on the lake and sinks fish attractors around is dock AND has a boat to go clean out other docks too.... Absolutely possible.

    If someone did that he would be in an overstocked body of water (probably small) and most of the fish wouldn't much bigger than a popcorn poot.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    The lake is huge, 114,500 surface acres. If memory serves he lives on or very close to the lake. It has been years, but I seem to remember he was a minister? I'll try to find the article again.
    As to possession, a quick check of the TPWD site only mentions daily limit, no possession limit noted. I've never heard of one, but sadly, I probably have never been close to breaking it.

    Not true....I know a guy who had limited out 254 consecutive days and I quit keeping up with him after that, so I don't know what the final tally was but the fish were huge...come out of Old Hickory Lake and J Percy Priest Lake.
