That is neat info. So are you saying that the jig had to be running a certain direction, or the crappie wouldn't hit it? Or the wind speed made it hard to retrieve the jig the speed you wanted any other direction. Thanks

Yes, the jig had to be running in a certain direction. If you think about it, the fish are on the edge of the wind line and if you toss into the wind, the lure goes right in their faces. It comes directly at them as they are waiting to ambush minnows. Otherwise, you can actually spook them. It's like someone coming up behind you. Casting into the wind has always been very beneficial. You can throw farther with the wind, but you catch many more fish casting into the wind.

Another tip is when you are on the main ledges. Toss up against the current, not down current. Same affect. If you watch bass hit topwater on the ledges, they usually always go the same way when they surface, they're going with the current.
