Here's a copy of a previous post of mine, that may get you started in the right direction:



open water casting - 1/32oz Roadrunner (1-6ft) 1/16oz Roadrunner (6-15ft)
wood cover casting - 1/32-1/16oz weedless jighead & 1.5" tube body or Panfish Assassin
dock shooting - 1/32-1/16oz weedless jighead & Panfish Assassin
vertical casting - 1/16oz marabou jig
vertical tightline - #4 Gremlin clamp-on sinker, #1 Eagle Claw light wire bronze hook, lively minnow - Shad - Brook Silverside

That's about all the methods I employ, on any routine basis

Colors change ... but, White - Pink - Chartreuse are hard to beat (and most any other color w/Chartreuse !!)

The great thing about Crappie, is they'll hit some of the most mundane baits ... and some of the "purtiest" baits ... and some of the most butt ugly baits ... big baits ... little tiny baits ... live bait ... recently deceased bait ... and so on .......... cp
