So glad to have found this group.So looking forward for great tips on crappie fishing.I always fished with my grandmother in Indiana she always used a cane-pole and caught lots of fish.Then I meet my husband and he to loved to fish and we did a lot of fishing.Then we moved to WV my husband started driving truck and after my boy's grew up I got my cdl and joined my husband that was our life for ten years now we are off the road so we camp and fish,fish and camp!!!We go up to Indiana and still do a lot of fishing up there But all this fishing we never fished for crappie why? I guess there was never a need because we always caught bluegill,perch,bass.Then we started trout fishing a few years ago love that also but dont to much care for eating them.One of the lakes here in WV that we fish people catch a lot of crappie so I hope to catch some this year.So sure hope to get some great tips.
