I Am Going To Go Hungry. All These Fish Are Too Big!

I have a personal rule that I don't keep crappie that weigh over a pound. On this trip, nearly everything I caught was too big to keep.

Thanks for the livescope video Mike. You seem to be one of only a few that does it anymore. You’re also one of the best at it and we certainly appreciate it!

[@jordanleeroutdoors3060]

Nice fish Mike!

[@phillipriggins3520]

Good job Mike

[@Juniorsjigs]

Great video. Thank you

[@henrylewis5877]

I really feel sorry for you, not keeping 1 lbs 😢!

[@jimhopkins7112]

Looked like fun day keep that livescope on don’t listen to any of the hater’s fishing supposed to be fun and I don’t know about most people but I have more fun catching them than not and it makes better fishing footage when you actually catch some to lol

[@Norton590]

Thanks for the awesome video in Truman Lake. My question is what are the scissors you are using, looks like they cut the braid real well.

[@MidwestOutlaw86]

These fish are too big. Not a bad problem to have.

[@WickedTooners]

Thanks for another educational video. We are heading from Lake Havasu AZ to LOZ next week. Can shad be used instead of minnows?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

I guess so, depending on their size.

[@WickedTooners]

@@MikeBakerVideos Thanks, Mike.

[@citrusaroma]

Seems like you hardly ever fish loz for crappie anymore. Just better fishing on truman?

[@MikeBakerVideos]

@@citrusaroma I don’t fish LOZ during the warmer months of the year any more because the pleasure boat traffic is too bad. I don’t have a home on LOZ any more and I am not going to drive there to fish for a couple of hours in the morning before the big boats come out. I love to fish it in the winter.
