Thursday Report

Started at noon again, in an attempt to let water warm up. It worked till about 4 pm when clouds and cold wind dropped temps 10 degrees and the fish just shut down. All C & R today with 16 crappie and 11 LGMouth. Good fun and great clients.

Nice looking fish, Capt.! Ive got a couple quick questions for you....Im fairly new to crappie fishing on the potomac. Are you generally fishing with small jigs/tubes/etc? Do you tip them with minnows? or just nothing. Not looking for your secret techniques, just some general guidance. Thanks in advance for any advice.

[captmikestarrett]

No jigs just hook and bobber. Bait is shiners .

Med to large shiners work best for me.

Heh Capt. Mike. Nice report and pictures. Do you catch any white crappie over your way or all black crappie?

We get a white now and then in MD. I get a lot more in DC BTW.
