Only caught 3 crappie today and 1 bass. Mapped a lot of fish but could not seem to get them to bite. I have grown up long lining but today's trip made me want to try minnow fishing or casting since I had marked the fish. Is there anyone else out ther that long lines primarily, but sometimes breaks out the minnows? What do you guys look for when minnow fishing? Suggestions for when to minnow fish and when to longline? General consensus today around waterloo was that in 2 weeks we will be in the thick of them.
