Earl the article was in the April/May 2009 Crappie World Extra. I read it again today. It is a very interesting article, but like I said it doesnt give a whole lot of info about weights. I am going to try it next week when I am off work. I will let you know how it goes.

Monk what weight sinkers do you use? They look like 1/2oz. I have used carolina rigs for bass and use 1oz. Pretty sure that would be to big for crappie. Have you ever used minnows on them?
