    Default The black attack

    Had me a small handful of jig heads that I painted with black nail polish , that darn cheap nail polish never would actually dry , I gave them a silver sparkle cover coat that sealed and dried and took them for some swim time .
    Black has been good in a few spots lately , this go I used a "standard" size 1/16 ballhead with a number 6 sickle hook and an Arkie solid body tube plastic . Paired that jig with a float and went in for the win .
    The bite was strange and the fish were in that there really lethargic mode , the jig had to be moving very slowly by them and NOT twitching , just a really slow drag by cover was the key to getting a bite .
    Ran said jig about 5 foot under the float and drug it past standing vertical cover , proximity mattered and if the path was more than about 12 inches away from said cover , no bites
    Really pretty dark jig for sure and the fish seemed to think so as well .
    Some regular black crappie bit it , some blacknose crappie bit it and so did some white crappie as well and the BEST part was no bream in the mix of what came to hand ....
    all the fish were set free and then .....
    KABOOM is typically very near , as you well know by now
