All you have to do is look at the results from the Crappie USA or Indiana Slabmasters and you'll know you can't go wrong with this seminar.

Hello All,
Thank you for the kind words! I'm definitely looking forward to helping a top notch group of folks within the Friends of Fishing organization. I will do my best to help avid anglers and begginners find and catch more crappies anywhere you go... Making a fishing trip (with a kid, when possible) that much more enjoyable! I don't hold back in the tips and techniques, and fish almost every way you can for crappie (cranks, spider rigging, vertical jigging, bobbers, dock shooting), so I hope you find time to come to Bass Pro on the 18th and talk fishing!

Thank you JT for posting! Until then, see you on the water!

I think only Bill Dance and seminar speakers are the only ones with fishing privlages for the tank.  ;D

Doug, you know what they say about an expert? Anyone that is more then 20 miles from home is an expert!!!!
Just kidding. :D
"Once A Brickie Always A Brickie"
Doug grew up in Hobart and we are proud of his success as he has become an "EXPERT " catching those crappies!!!
I plan on being there to pick up a few pointers for sure.
See you there.

F83, if you put me on those 10" seeds, I'll get you some tank time!! :) It's amazing how fast the fish converged on the plastics I profiled during BPS Crappie Maddness... The jig last about 5 seconds in the tank before you have 5 fish fighting over it. Seen a Bass crack a 9 inch gill going for the Wiggl'R two years ago!

Looking forward to seeing ya Teach!

Wish I could attend Doug but not possible.  :'(   My mother-in-law In Whiting is having serious health issues and the wife has the only car.

I will be hatching crappies on my fish farm next year and will attempt to feed train the fry and add bruiser black crappie to my list of species that I grow out on feed to trophy size. Will have to sex them and plant only one sex in the main pond to keep them from reproducing and overpopulating the pond.

Sorry to hear about your mother in law Taxi. I know somebody will have to stay back and take care of the guard dog (keep him from eating people). Exciting to hear about the crappie! Looks like I'll have to catch another mounter and come visit! Folks that see the blue perch are just amazed from your work!! Give yourself a pat on the back!!!

Most enjoyable day!
Doug did a super job and is very knowlegeable when it comes to fishing for crappie. Some of his points make so much sense and are things any fisherman can use and take to the lake to improve his success.  I learned a lot.
Thanks Doug for a great presentation.

Thanks fellas... I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the afternoon. Friends of fishing is a top notch group, and I'm glad to help! Meeting new friends, putting names to faces, and catching up with old friends and talking fishing... What more can you ask for in a hot summer afternoon. Hopefully we'll get a chance to wet a line or two in the future!!
