    Default Big 4 Guide


    Hello Everyone,

    I am looking for a guide recommendation for the Big 4.
    I would like to learn how and when to troll crankbaits.
    If you have a favorite, I am interested.
    Thanks in advance,
    Tom

    I’m not sure if Brad Chappell does much guiding on Arkabutla, Enid, Sardis, or Grenada, although he does guide Ross Barnett Reservoir and Lake Washington, and he pulls crankbaits as one of his techniques. While I haven’t caught anything from pulling crankbaits since November, I may have to pull the crankbait pulling rods from the rod locker next week if I want to fish because it has been too windy except for a few occasions to spider rig properly.

    I started pulling crankbaits last May when the crappie started moving out of the spawn pattern and did it all summer and fall. I definitely like that I have a larger window of wind to work with (The Rez starts whitecapping at 10 mph sustained, especially from the north), and I create an artificial breeze moving 1.5 mph, which helps a little bit during the summer.

    If I'm not at work or taking kids to their activities, you might find me on "The Rez" fishing. If not there, I could be in the garage working on my boat.
