    813 too. Get out and spend time on the water too. More time on the water = more knowledge, I think SYG said keep trolling till you run out of juice and you'll catch fish.......
    That's right! If you troll all day your bound to snag a few even if they don't wanna bite, lol.

    When tying off that first looper jig, as TC says make it somewhat lone and once loop
    and jig are tied, tie couple more knots in looper, that will make it stiffer and stand out
    from main line better and lesson chance of tangling ..............
    Remember heavier jig on top lighter on bottom so when pulling it will ride a little higher
    in water column.
    "make or take notes on everything that happens...temp, speed, depth, bottom
    contour, type of jig, weight, list goes on and on and on....time of day, cloudy
    overcast, sun shine, full moon / new moon days on calender.............Sounds like
    a lot but will pay off down road a whole bunch............practice, practice, practice
    make notes...
    Off soap box now

    Catching spec's in Florida is much different than catching spec's in Ms - Al -Ga
    Tn - Ky - Tn - Oh - In & Ill.
    We have stained water here vs clear, cloudy spring fed in Northern States..What you
    thought worked up North will not come close at times to working down here. You are
    also dealing with Black Crappie vs White-Black combinations up North. These Blacks
    are more heat tolerant and are not as predictable as people think. Very rarely will
    you see films, or writings about the Big Time Crappie guys finding and catching Spec's in Florida - just dosen't happen (different world down here)

    Amen on get out and have fun at it........sometimes the more you get into it
    the more a person looses the concept of what fishing is all about.......
    Greatest treasure there is is to take a child fishing and watch them catch fish........
    The looks, reactions are pricless .............Same goes when you and friends go out
    fishing..........It is not necessary the fishing aspect but the time spent together is
    what life is all about...............Thanks Mike for bringing me back to reality...........
