I finallygot paid to fish.
Had Monday off work so N2crappie and I went up to Mark Twain to fish. We fished some bridge piers and brush piles before we got the trolling rods out.
It was hot, 90 degrees and humid. No breeze and the lake was flat except for some jet skiers out there. Not much in the way of shad out on the main lake where we usually see them. The heat got to us so we went back to the bridge piers to hide in the shade. N2crappie stayed with his jig while I was fishing mainly with minnows. We did catch pretty many fish releasing anything under 10". I did catch a crappie that had a tag on worth $75 from the Missouri Conservation. That will pay for the gas. Now if I can only win another $50,000 I might break even. I had a good time out there fishing with Mark. Top photo center fish has the tag in it.

Nice day fishing. If I was to catch a tagged fish it would probably be a bill with my luck

I've caught tagged fish before :
2 caught at Weiss - not registered to turn in the tags & the "rodeo" was over when they were caught. Had a friend check them out for us, just to see what we "would have" won. All he would say was "you don't want to know".
Caught several tagged Rainbow Trout from a city lake ... all I got from them was a few pewter trout pins denoting the catches. No monies( tags were worth money by random number draw).
My old hat with the pins on it :
That's just my luck though ... I fished the ABF tourney series (Ky Chapter) back in the 70's and placed one place out of the money/prize in two of the 6 tourneys I fished.
Same with card games ... I hold my own until money hits the table
SO .... congrats on your tag money win !!
