Well I sit here this morning unhappy and with a frown on my face. The weather forecast predicts 18, 19 and 16 mph winds for the next 3 days. I have really been enjoying the success of long line trolling but that method does not like windy days at all.

I remember that tight line vertical trolling was not affected as bad but didn't exactly like the wind either. My question is this... is there any "best" way to fish for Crappie when the winds get 12 mph and over or are we just better off to sit home and complain about not getting to go fishing?
