I was out crappie fishing yesterday evening. I was fishing brushpiles in 12 to20 feet of water and caught one or two small ones. I hate to admit after a couple hours of not catching I went looking for hybrids. I caught some nice hybrids and a couple nice crappie on a shallow diving shad colored crankbait. I was fishing it medium to fast.

So I am now wondering do crappie prefer more aggressive baits during this time of year?
