JSC, Bigbee138 and Crappie Hazard,

You guys are alright. lol Thanks for the input and the support.

Lately, here on Ouachita the crappie are hard to find, so I've turned to stripers (who aren't hard to find), uppping my tackle to 25 lb mono, a half oz sinker, swivel, two foot of 20 lb leader, a no. 4 red circle hook and the biggest brood minnow I can find!!! They taste great and fight like nothing I have ever fought. They will do in a pinch, when the specks are hidin' out.
