Jim, you're right! It's a Renosky crappie jig.  The tiny silver minnow is on a one piece hook/orange weighted head.

I was using a bobber about 18 inches above the jig and cast towards the shoreline from the small fishing pier at the north end of Lake Charleston.  For the hour I was there it was one fish after another.  I usually release everything I catch, but there was a 4 year old boy and his grandmother trying to catch dinner, so I gave them some of the nice fat bluegills.

Looks like a Renosky jig.

What type of jig is that? And the round piece? Strike indicator of some type?
