    This is the first video ive watched of yours and you have left and you will leave a lasting impression. You are one of the few people i call a true fisherman. A fisherman ain't afraid to let their fish go, you ain't scared to use old tackle, and most of all, you care about the fish spawning. That is the definition of a fisherman.

      Richard Gene, I have a friend that must be related to Elmo . His name is Ruffus; he always bugging me to go fishing
      , but when I call him to go he's always comes up with a excuse as to why he can't go that day. ?? anyhow I came across your videos and love um. I,ve been trying my heart out to catch crappies for three years. no luck. I'm going to try your methods. They look simple and make since, not at all like all the other commercial type hyped up money shows out there. Yours are real and very entertaining. Thank you very much.

  • @dicklock8252
    @dicklock8252 Před 7 lety +3

    I've never thought to use a peg float for anything but catfishing with santee-cooper type rigs or three-way rigs where I wanted my bait just off the bottom, until I saw this. seems much easier than using a slip bobber (which is what I typically do when crappie fishing), or a clip-on. thank you, I'm gonna have to try that out
