Thread: methods

I'm seeing all these post about pushing and pulling crank baits and jigs what is this

http://www.crappie.com/crappie/missi...-cranks-101-a/

This will help on pulling cranks.
Pulling refers to putting the rods on the side or back of the boat , letting out a measured amount of line this causes the baits to run at a certain depth at a certain speed while the boat goes forward " pulling " the baits along behind it. With jigs its also called " long lineing ".

Pushing refers to haveing the poles on the front of the boat while boat is going forward , with jigs, its also called slow trolling ( depending on speed ) . With crankbaits its called pushing cranks.

Hope that helps alittle

Well now your free to go fishing!

Summertime use to be the hardest time of year for crappie fishing for me. Now I catch most of my fish cranking in the summer.

Deal, time still 2:00? I can hit Greers Ferry and Little Red that same weekend.

You ain't lived until you've had 6 crankbaits ($30) hung up at the same time on a windy day.

Don't do it! My advice is to stay as far away from crainkbaits as you can! Its for your own good. Its a bad bad thing. Once you start you won't be able to stop!
