    Hey Meatgetter,

    Are you talking about using those 6mm glass beads in just muddy water? Or real dingy water? Where do you get those?
    My wife keeps saying I never listen to her....... or something like that!

    They are not just for muddy,they also come in many colors,helps locate the blind and hard hearing fish.
    two sometimes three beads of differents colors,orange,red,orange.somestimes you need a loud click and sometimes a soft click.the click click sound of tbe beads makes them think a crawdad is moving around.

    OK, I had my wife get out all her beads and she had glass. Now the question is what color. She had clear, white, black, pink, red and brown so I got some of all. Do ya'll use different colors? Also do you use them just when it's muddy or maybe when you just can't get a bite? This sounds like a great idea.

    Thanks Meatgetter and Turtlebait. I've just never tried that, and didn't know anyone else had. I know the green carp fishermen use rattles and stuff in their tube baits and beads on Carolina rigs! Just never heard of anyone doing it crappie fishing! I learn something every day on here!

    To get them to click you will need slack in the line as to jig or jert,...
    I don't hardly ever use them anymore and they are not for everyday use
    B/c somedays crappie will hit the beads and not the lure.they are just another trick that does not work altime
    just like some of the plastic that doesn't work altime.the bottom bead can be a tab heigher then
    the top bead....humm get a short line a glass of water and jig,jert the beads to see what it takes to make
    them click.the click is more important then color choose ,you do not want the fish hitting at the beads as they
    do.
