Crappies are one of the best tasting fish I have ever eaten Buccaneers Ronald Jones II Jersey , I like them better then trout. The meat is pure white and is firm and full of good mellow flavour. Crappies are a panfish, similar to bluegill and sunfish. When I was a young man, a lot of local fishermen called crappie, ' calico bass '. Luckily for us fishermen they are considered a panfish and are not restricted in most areas, like other bass are when it comes to fishing laws. Here in Pennsylvania we are allowed to catch 50 crappies a day with no size limitations.


Crappies are 'little hellions,' they are full of energy and despite their small size they can make a normal fishing rod bend to the breaking point and cause a reels drag to become active Buccaneers Vita Vea Jersey , the energy and taste are two reasons why crappies are such a great fish to catch.


Crappies come in two types or varieties, there are black crappies and white crappies. Crappies live throughout the U.S in many ponds, lakes and streams, I guess if other panfish or even bass can thrive in the water, then crappie can also. Crappie look similar in size and shape to other panfish, except they are a lot more silver colored Buccaneers Lavonte David Jersey , with black spots, and they have upturned noses. They are actually a very nice looking fish, and the silver or shiny color shimmers in the sunlight.


Crappies can be caught year around. In the spring and fall months they move near the shore areas, and in the summer they move out in more deeper and cooler water. They are probably the most active in the early spring months when they move towards the shores to spawn, they become very aggressive and tend to bite and attack anything that is cast or moves near them or the nest, making it pretty easy to get a stringer full of crappies in a short time in the spring season. The nests look like hollowed out depressions or dishes in the mud or gravel on the bottoms of the ponds and lakes. If you walk slowly around the edges of the water Buccaneers Gerald McCoy Jersey , you can see these nests and often see the crappie in and near them. Once you spot one of the nests, casting your bait near it will usually produce a quick strike.


In the summer or warmer months, they often hang around stumps, trees, and other debris areas and underwater structures for shading and protection. Casting near these areas in the summer and warmer months will often be very productive for catching a mess of crappie. In the fall time of the year, they move towards the shores and become more aggressive again in their feeding and biting. This aggressive feeding and biting continues throughout the cold winter months Buccaneers Mike Evans Jersey , which makes crappie a great fish to catch while ice fishing in the winter.


The best time to catch crappies is during the daylight hours, with early morning after sunrise and in the late afternoon towards early evening hours being the best times. Crappies love minnows with a passion, and when it comes to live baits there is no better choice than a small minnow. If you don't have or cannot get live minnows, then use jigs or any such lure that looks as realistic as possible to a live minnow. But when you use an artificial minnow make sure you keep the lure pretty active, so it simulates a live minnow as much as possible, if the fake minnow just sits still Buccaneers Jameis Winston Jersey , crappie have been known to look and then just pass by, they seem to prefer live minnows and bait instead of dead ones. Crappies have a abnormally soft mouth, so be aware that if you jerk your rod too hard, to set the hook, you can rip it right out of the crappies mouth, resulting in losing the fish.


There is Computer Software that is made for crappie fishing as well as catching any type of fish. After keeping a few past records of fishing trips Buccaneers John Lynch Jersey , this software will help you to easily calculate what days will be a great fishing day! The software is called: 'Fishing Buddy,' you can download and try the software for free from this website address:

Everything happened so quickly, a huge object swept past my peripheral vision. Next I heard the sound of ripping metal.


'What the...' I was shouting at the top of my voice, as the realization dawned on me and I banged on the steering wheel in anger.


I regained my composure and saw that the car had slowed down and has stopped at the side of the road.


I got out and very well know that I could explode and things would turn ugly.


You see, I was involved in an auto incident 5 years ago Buccaneers Mike Alstott Jersey , and I emerged with a baseball bat to confront the owner of the other car, luckily he sped off before I had the time to do some damage.


This time, I told myself that I had to cool down. Instantly, I began doing the special breathing exercise that I had learnt.


When the other driver got off and I was walking towards her, I knew that everything would be under control. I could feel my anger disappearing and my heartbeat returning to normal.


You see, I had been practicing various methods of stress management Buccaneers Matt Gay Jersey , and felt that the quality of my life does seem to improve and I seem to have most things under control. But this incident is the ultimate litmus test. It would be the event that lends testimony to the effectiveness of my years of practice.


I'm glad to say that everything went fine and we managed to end our exchange in a civilized manner.


So what have I been practicing that has such a profound effect on controlling stress?


I have studied and practiced numerous methods and areas including: Progressive muscle relaxation, Aromatherapy oil, Power of positive thinking, Positive affirmation, Creative visualization, Meditation technique Buccaneers Anthony Nelson Jersey , Breathing exercise, Relaxation exercise and Relaxation music. I have also explored the concept of brain wave and its relation to stress including: Alpha brai.
