Got em trying to run off is what ya did!

I would say you are getting slow in your old age. Letting one get that far before you set the hook.

[Rojo]

Yeah, a while back he was having trouble hooking them in the mouth too. Jigs were all the way down their throats. Ketchn, as many crappie you stick steel to your hookset speed should increase, shouldn't it?

[Jamesdean]

I think when he sets the hook, he's tryin to get half the kleening done right then...lol...

[NIMROD]

With livescope I foul hook several putting my bait right on them .

[Rojo]

So if a crappie is foul hooked in a tournament does it still count? I fish for the challenge & table fair.

In most instances, no .... it would not count & would have to be released at once. Rules usually dictate that the fish has to be "hooked" IN the mouth, so as to eliminate any chance of the angler "snagging" the fish (on purpose).
