OPENING CAST DECEMBER 2022
As the end of 2022 quickly approaches, my head is spinning as to where did the time go! So much has happened in our sport of crappie fishing. I felt a quick recap of some really important impacts to both the sport, me personally and the progress in CrappieNOW publishing might be in order.
Post COVID has the fishing industry still going strong but back to pre-COVID license sales. Product delivery delays and back orders are now arriving to the smaller U.S. market. This creates a saturated market that is smaller at this time. Add in inflation, higher interest rates, outrageous gas prices and less household spendable cash, this creates a perfect storm.
