for crappie i like a minner on the end of my mrr crappie black tuxcedo
Jig fishermen outfish me 10 to 1 usually. Heck everyone does.
But I caught a limit today on Nimrod with minnows. I came to grips long ago with myself.......I have a lot of mental problems (:)) and watching a cork is great therapy for me. I'd rather catch 5 on minnows than 25 on jigs. Someday I'll have to change, cause minnows are hard to come by lately. I save 'em all.......but summer is impossible to keep them for long. Anyway, placing that minnow in the right spot, and WAITING for a hit, and learning to read the cork..............is my therapy. Today, every single minnow I pulled out was missing an eye or was mangled like a butcher had gone after it. And I seldom detected a bite (in the wind).....so I have lots to learn, it seems.
But I love minnows. And I'm about to get too old to change.
But I am in awe of a good jig fisherman.
