Looks like the crappies are restless WTG.

Comment by John Sheehan on November 28, 2015 at 3:00pm

Some smaller Crappie caught from shore using Fatheads, Shiners ,Night Crawlers and Tube jigs . Tube jigs out fished the minnows and crawlers this time .

Comment by John Sheehan on November 22, 2015 at 7:31am

The Crappie certainly like the slow fall of a jig or spoon and it seems too much movement will turn them off . The White Perch will take to the more frequent twitches but Crappie ,moreso just a tight line fall. Spoons untipped or with a piece of Crawler  , Tube Jigs in red/White are attracting them.

wow nice jigs Allan

Comment by John Sheehan on May 10, 2015 at 7:33am
