Heck yeah don't get me wrong hard to beat throwing a frog in the grass this time of year but those big slabs sure get the heart going also.

I'm to the point in my life, where I hate fishing the spring Crappie spawn. It's just not that fun to me because where I live, you wade, or beat your boat up getting back into it the thick brush in sometimes less than a foot of water. Then trying to find a tiny hole in that brush that you think you wont get snagged in, only to almost invariably get snagged if there is any bait movement at all. Then trying to muscle the fish out without ripping off it's lips off or getting hopelessly entangled and having to break brush or your line. I kind of look at it like trying to fish for an angry squirrel in a tree with a rope. There is also a million other people doing the same thing, and everyone is going to the same spots. So you can pretty much pull up to the ramp and know how your day is going to go, by how many boats beat you there. I's also often cold and rainy, but if you don't want to fish then, you can forget about it on nice days, because guys are getting to the good spots at 3 in the morning, before I even have a chance to get up because of my work schedule. It's why I have always preferred to fish the warmer months or fall on brush piles or other structure like rip-rap and bridges.

Appreciate it bud!

Thanks bud!

Appreciate it couple more coming waiting on the mail :)

When the fish are 15+ feet down could be 20 could be 60feet when I say 15 feet I mean where the fish dots are not the depth of the water etc

You da man

Every informal video you put out. I watch, then go out the next morning to try it out. Thanks CrappieMan

What would you recommend for a beginner crappie boat?? Or what was your first crappie boat??

Mine was a 16ft johnboat but a crappie tracker with stick steering is super nice for river fishing

What makes your lake work. Even just finding something different can be key sometimes. The tips I give are just general things to look for. Once you start finding them try to figure out why that school is there and repeat that.
