I got a crappie tattoo for mah birthday. I got the tattoo at Villain Arts Festival on the 9th, and then DAYS LATER, I put myself right on a school of em. And I'm just tickled that I managed to get a photo of them together. I guess I need to get one of a walleye now. Maybe I'll actually catch one. 🤔 (Do NOT ask me how I got the photo of my tattoo with the real crappie next to it.)
