Nice set up, keep after them, the crappies did not just disappear.

Ron, I won't give up. Fun looking for them. More fun to catch tho!

Ron I think they did, just judging by my results. Turning in my crappie.com decal

Nope they didnt dissapear, try 2-8fow for white crappie and deeper breaklines for the blackies, but fish real slow

fishlessDan: Sounds like you have them figured out, previous post said to try feathered jigs, do you have a preference to color and weight.

Weight wise whatever it takes to get them verticle for the depth, but I like to trim them down so total length of the jig is 2in an be sure to taper the tail when trimming. Since I pretty much just fish for crappie, and only feel the need for feathers when its real hot out, I trim them all before I put them in the box. Color is dictated by water clarity. Feather may not work for all, they are just my confidence bait in the heat of summer. Alot of dang fine fishers swear by minners and do well using them this time of year, but Ill stick with feathers. Hope that gives ya another option!

Thanks fishlessDan, I'm going try it. Brad

Good luck an keep the jigs moving slow and as tight to stucture or cover as possible.
