Jeffrey ,so the Catfish trick worked on Crappie too huh!

Went back for an hour  last evening and couldnt find one berry .Guess the Crappie climbed up on shore and ate them all . I caught several small Crappie and Gills by the pipe/wall.Got them on a tiny Rapala .a Keitech easy shiner and a 32nd oz Squirrel tail Jig.

Indeed.......I once took a bar of Ivory soap to a farm pond for channel cats suggested by my grandfather.  To my surprise, I caught five crappie on little chinks of Ivory soap and we had no idea they were in this pond.......one of those crazy days fishing

This catch blew me away Jeffrey. A hunch that worked great is always a good thing .I have heard Carp will feed on wild fruits so i tried it out after catching a few small crappie with tube jigs.This fish was right up against an inflow pipe and I have a strong feeling this is not the 1st berry he has seen and eaten . FREE BAIT !
