Thank you for sharing. I have spent around 10 hrs on running the motor for the last 3 weeks but still no luck on finding them. Only found a few brush piles. Will continue watching your video for guidance. Just subbed because your videos are very useful to me.
Heaviest cover available, DIRECTLY adjacent to a main basin where they winter. Pre-spawn= bottom of the first drop off, spawn=thickest cover over dark bottom directly adjacent to main basin area, post spawn= bottom of the flat directly adjacent to the outside weed edge. This works for me in about 85% of lakes i encounter in the midwest.
I live close to a pretty good sized lake that holds great pike walleye and crappie. I’ve got the pike and walleye catching down. But I struggle to find crappie any time of yr. There isn’t a lot of brush piles or stumps and logs. Only place I’ve caught any was near a half sunken tree and when the water was warmer. We have ice til about may on good ice yrs. I will be searching again this spring
Awesome info; I truly Appreciate it!! I just chatted with you on Facebook this evening (that’s so you know my “real name”, lol). I’ll get some Crappie Man jigs and try ‘em out & let you know! Thanks again for the instructional & educational video!
Northern and west shores, dead lillies are calling my name. Many times I have got the females just by fishing the other side of the boat. Oh yeah new sub!
Shoot bud I been catching spawning fish since November down here in Okeechobee. They still on Fire but only a month or so left of the spawn down here. It has been one heck of a bite down here this year, got a lots of snow birds down here fishing the lake to death but it’s all good👍🏻👍🏻 great video man, I’m ready to see you whack on em up shallow!!!
Thanks for the great info. Have you ever used double jig rigs trolling for crappie just wondering about the top jig getting tangled around the top line thanks...
Regular earth worms are my favorite on a jig for panfish it's almost gueranteed if you want a challenge walk around the area catch some bugs then fish with those
