Hey y’all what’s your go to bait for finding those shallow spawning crappie?

@Eyesofthasouth Год назад

I like hair jigs under a 1 1/2 cigar float. Pitch and pop

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@Eyesofthasouth yep those work great around here too. Any particular color that’s your go to?

@Eyesofthasouth Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG I like orange head, black body chartreuse tail & wing. Also, Chartruese head, gold flash body, chartreuse tail and white wing. But I mostly choose colors based off water clarity and conditions. I do think pink is good in cold water, orange in early spring and Chartruese as you move towards later spring and summer tho. That’s what makes most since to me and is the story I tell myself lol. How bout you?

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@Eyesofthasouth orange head/ black and chartreuse tail is one of my favorites too 👍

Thank you Bob. I love that shallow water fishing as well. Can’t wait for them to get shallow again 👍

@matthewweed8408 Год назад

Awesome video brother. The spawn here in Missouri is just getting started. Can't wait for the spawn to get going right good. Ready to feel the thump.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thank you sir. I love that spawn fishing. This year’s weather messed it up for me down here. I had to abandon it after 10 days straight. I hope y’all bust them. Keep me posted 👍

@TrueNorthOutdoorAdventures Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG yeah man! I've just finally been 'getting into' Crappie Fishing in particular the past couple years & love the challenge of figuring them out.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thank you Mark. Yeah those have been some good little reels for me as well 👍

@EastTexasAnglerJordan Год назад

I fished a few bridges and felt those shad bumps today, good fishing! I watched a guy limit out with minnows on the bank while I was jig fishing in the yak last week 🤣

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Yeah during the spawn it’s hard to beat those minnows. Those darn things sure have got expensive around here.

@williamscattleco.6095 Год назад

Great video !

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thank you sir I appreciate the comment 👍

@scott958 Год назад

I personally use the road runner jig head and any type of grub tail for shallow crappies

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Hey Scott thanks for your comment. Yeah those things work great. We have been using them this last week in 20 to 25 ft as well. They really like em 👍

@darlenefiber3209 Год назад

Great job no electronics thank you

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thank you Darlene. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment 👍

@ppdrawings Год назад

You finally found em' man!! I'm always afraid to cast around brush and weeds because I hate getting hung - I usually go vertical in those areas but it spooks the crappie too

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Yeah I got lucky and found some shallow . I’ve been sacking them up in 22 to 25 ft but wanted to get one more shallow trip in before they’re gone. How’s it been over your way?

@ppdrawings Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG The weather has been up & down so the fishing hasn't been great but I have been able to catch em' here and there • extremely scattered

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@ppdrawings the weather has been very inconsistent here as well. Going to be 45 in the morning 🤦‍♂️ not sure how tomorrow’s trip will go

@ppdrawings Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG yeah man!!! It's gonna be 40° here in the morning... should be a good bite if you can find the crappie

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@ppdrawings I got several hundred tied up out there lol but you never know how these cold fronts will affect them. We’ll give it a good try for sure 👍

@Eyesofthasouth Год назад

Jam up video bud. I wanna get out offshore more but that’s the style of fishing I’m the most comfortable with. Enjoyed… those males have some pretty colors too

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thanks a bunch. Yeah those males really do darken up this time of year. 👍

@imsowright90 Год назад

Pretty nice crappie. I have been on Bob Sandlin this weekend. Tried some brushpiles. Caught more smalls than anything, but still found some females with eggs. I would have figured they would have all spawned by now. I guess I was wrong. Lol.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Yeah all the fish I’m catching out in 25 ft still have eggs too. This weather has been nuts lol They might still be spawning in June at this rate lol

@Grainraiser Год назад

I see your still using the old school tackle box which I think is cool. Keep stacking those slabs sir.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Yeah that was one of my pawpaws tackle boxes. It won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. Thank you for the comment 👍

@richardwilson7106 Год назад

Great video Gary. I hope they are still biting well when we are fishing with you in early May!!!

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Thank you Richard. I think they will be biting good. Hopefully it will warm up before then lol

@richardwilson7106 Год назад

I hope it warms up by then too. It was 28 degs. here in north-central Indiana this morning. Yuck. Haha

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@richardwilson7106 I like to have froze to death this morning with a moist northeast wind and 43 degrees lol

@dariusjohnson3286 Год назад

I use the same lure and if you’re by or under a bridge man it’s on I’ve had maybe 1-2 days under 15. Hands down recommend getting this lure but get white

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

I’ve got a few white ones somewhere. I’ll hunt them up and give them a try 👍 thank you Darius for your comment

@j.s.3297 Год назад

Nice 👍...been hammering giant crappie in my area.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

That’s awesome 👍I’m glad to hear that. What’s been your best bait?

@j.s.3297 Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG 2-3 inch minnow baits ( Bobby Garland shad, split tails, twisters) on 1/32, 1/16 jig heads.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

@@j.s.3297 are you casting them or jigging ?

Those drum will eat just like bass when they get the chance, caught a 6 pounder on a 1/2 ounce football jig one time.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

Hey Brady thanks for the comment. I know what you mean. I was fishing in a BASS Invitational on the Red River years ago and could have weighed in 50 lbs in five fish of those darn things on a crankbait lol

@bradymeredith3528 Год назад

@@CATCHAHAWG yeah they love cranks too, also have caught quite a few Chanel cats on cranks and square bills

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

That’s a really good question. If I’m hungry for fish I sure would. I’ve cleaned a bunch of them over the years for customers who wanted them. Not sure where all that nonsense started lol

@rider660r Год назад

Worried about the Crappie teeth cutting line............. ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe you better get some lessons from Richard Gene the Fishing Machine....he often uses #2 line,and you're skeered with #6. Hahaha that's damn funniest shit I've heard. If the Cats and bass aren't cutting the line a Crappie sure as shit isn't going to....duh Lousy vid,glad I was doing something productive while it played,time wasn't all that wasted. I never use a loop knot anyways,at best anyone of them is only going to be around 50% of the line #. If I get snagged I like to straighten my hooks to get it free.

@CATCHAHAWG Год назад

I’d sure take some one on one lessons from Richard if he’d be willing to give them. He’s the bomb. Thanks a bunch for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate it 😬

@stevieb9104 Год назад
