2019 Crappie thread!!

[Slew]

We got our 3 year old so nothing crazy. Was thinking of trying out the Mercado, looks nice from the road. Lol

I like Wades Place in Chandler for seafood and steaks. La Plazita on 64 is a dive Mexican joint but it's good!! Bruno's is pretty good pizza! Then there's all the chain stuff in town and what's already been suggested!! Holler next time your this way!

Just standard chain Mexican food

If you want Mexican go to La Plazita or Don Juan's

Hit Murval with my buddy Slew. The fishing was slow but we managed about 30 decent fish.
Slew is the man on slinging crappie and out fished me 2 to 1 but in my defense, I have been running guided trips so often that I kept all the trees on his side of the boat

No, I haven't been crappie fishing. Tried for sand bass a couple of times with limited success. Have you been?

Come on! I'm probably gonna donate this time myself! I've only been on Roberts twice in the last 5 years both for tourneys! It's tricky keeping them alive and some die anyways! We fill the livewells as soon as we get on the water, add lots of ice throughout the day to keep the livewell temps 10-15 degrees cooler than the surface temp, use G Juice or Rejuvinade, fin weights, and use a 12v Mr Bubbles bubbler that we run all day. Recirculate blows those panfish around so much IMO they kill themselves trying to upright themselves. We also never have more than 8 fish in the livewell and try to keep it clean as well. I rarely put fish in the livewell outside of a tourney. Use a cooler and ice the rest of the time. Cold fish are easier to clean!

My boat has an oxygenator system I use but IMO it's more gimmick than anything. Some folks actually have O2 tanks and shoot that into the water directly through a diffuser that seems much better. But usually cold water, G juice, fin weights, and a big mister bubbler going they have to wait on our fish to settle down in the basket! That said we learned fish care the hard way costing us $$$!
And even with all that they sometimes just die! It's usually your biggest fish! Just make sure they're all alive when you go to weight in or they take the dead fish out and you can't replace it. You can usually check in fish that are stressed earlier than weight-in during the summer so we do that when we can!

I probably would but I'm taking off 3 days the next week to go to Venice chasing redfish.
