Greetings all, new guy here, just saying hello.... Live in the Tampa area and have been fishing saltwater exclusively since I moved here from FL in 2003. I finally got myself something that floats so now I can explore some of the lakes around here that supposedly hold lots of crappie... I grew up in Missouri bass and crappie fishing but it's been over 10 years since I've tried for either. I recently bought a Nucanoe Frontier 12 fishing kayak and I absolutely love it. IF anyone in the Tampa area does their crappie fishing from a kayak and is open to a tag-along please let me know! I worked in the fishing department of the original Bass Pro in Springfield, MO while I was in college and I took full advantage of the employee discount to acquire lots of gear. I still have a lot of it but will be heading to Bass Pro in Orlando today to get a few more rigs and some fresh soft plastics. Here's a photo of my fishing rig:
