T-shirt rules

[Ketchn]

there are rules for t-shirts , like you can't wear one if you are on the skins team ...
all kidding aside I sure like wearing crappie.com t-shirts , sometimes they make me feel lucky and then other times I just feel lucky to wear one .
do they enhance the ketch rate you might ask ? Not terribly sure is my answer because the scientific studies I am involved in are not complete ......
grabbed one out of the closet yesterday and off I went to work ....lunch break and off I went to the water ....
the particulars ....
over cast , drizzling just a light tad , north wind and a bit chilly ....not great for dock ketchn most of the time .
pitched a pretty jig in dark pink and white ,,,,,,about nothing going on ,,,,
bought said oh well and then decided to try a different profile and much different color ....
the struggle was quite real I tell ya , but 2 things were noticed , one they would ONLY take the jig on a VERY slow rise !
2... they seemed to like the dark color jig better than the light color jig ...
now was this study all scientific , not so much and the owner of said dock asked me why the fish were not biting lately ...
my response was that they are often wandering when the sky is darkened and they tend to stack up better when the sun is making serious shade there, and often times the bite is so terribly light in the summer that, some folks never realize they even got bit !
now did I hammer you might ask , nope not really , but 15 or so in an hour beats heck out of not trying to ketch them for sure ,,,,,AND especially if you are wearing the appropriate apparel to do so .....
KABOOM is the word btw

Nice catch. But one of those t-shirt rules is that other people gotta be able to see the t-shirt.

I like all my Crappie.Com wear. My catch rate needs all the help it can get!

no time lapse full figure images that visit , fisheez did not seem worthy and it was just lil ole me down there and the one or 2 selfie images dont show off the shirt well either ,,,,,my bad ...
AND some of the fisheez involved were actually so small they made my hand look REALLY big btw ....

Awesome catches

Proven fact the shirts help. Caps too. Good job detecting the bite and getting the KABOOM.

Still a great big Kaboom Ketchn. Whether it is on tiny one like you showed or your usual 50-60 an hour. Totally agree on the Crappie.Com Shirts, I usually have one on everyday, fishing or not....Matter of fact, I need to make an order. Which some of the older style prints were still available...

Hijacking your post. First selfie I have ever taken. Now I know how much time the rest of you been practicing taking selfie photos.

Taken today, coolest fishin' shirt I own............. I'm ordering more of these. In 94 degree 90+ percent humidity I hardly perspired. Really remarkable shirts.

Looking good. That’s the shirt I’ve been wearing fishing. Love those better than my other performance shirts because of the wrist cuff. Most have very long sleeves that are too long for me. Slab found some good shirts no doubt.

I 'd love to abide by rules but I can't, You don't make 'em in a real man size, 4XL! I've bought a cap and some other stuff but no shirt yet! So if you will get one in my size I'll be happy to buy and wear it proudly, by the rules of course!
