Thread: Buckeye Crappie Challenge

has been pretty cool to see all the info on the BCC.......wish my work schedule would allow me to fish em........ looks like Fished-out and all involved are doing great putting on a good series

The circuit would not be around today if were not for Frank's hard work during the off season. Thanks Frank and the hat too for all your hard work so we can continue to fish and enjoy fishing different lakes.

I think it's great, GREAT JOB. I'm not much into fishing them but I do like to follow the tourneys.

Thanks, guys. Wish more were fishing, because I think that's what it's going to take for the circuit to remain viable, but I understand that life (economy, work, kids, etc.) just sometimes gets in the way of what we'd like to do in a perfect world.

The guys fishing the circuit are good fishermen, great folks, and I thoroughly enjoy their company! There's not another crappie circuit like it in the state of Ohio, given it's heritage and the continued interest of Russ, the number and variety of lakes it covers, and the quality of the fishermen. Where else can you competively fish old-time shallow canal lakes, lakes with heavy cover and no cover, deep lakes, flood control and non-flood control, in the middle of no where and right next to major cities, rivers, the biggest lake in the state, and both heavy and little boat traffic? And the folks who fish it manage to find fish in all of them. Anyone can win at any point in time.

It's the best learning circuit around, and if you spend a couple years fishing it, I guarantee you'll be able to find crappie in just about any lake that has them, and under just about any circumstances. Lord knows, I've fished these tournaments in just about every condition imaginable! Before starting on this circuit around 2006, I primarily fished East Fork for crappie. I've learned more since then than I did in the prior30 years!! Talk about a priceless education!
