Thread: Sabiki Rigging

I have been working on perfecting this technique all summer and I have been quite entertained by it so far I thought I would share. While looking for brush piles on any of the Charlotte area lakes I usually stumble across a school of white perch at some point. The only way I have found to distinguish white perch from crappie is usually just the numbers in the schools as they look the same on the sonar. I catch mostly white perch doing this but occasionally get a few crappie as well. Usually, as soon as I spot them on the sonar I will put a gps point on them and quickly make a U turn. I takes some practice but I've got pretty good at getting on the school quick enough to get my sabiki rig, which stays ready, on them. I was surprised that even in shallow water they won't totally disperse until after I have marked them 2 or 3 times. Its almost a sure thing when I see them that you'll get 7-8 or every pull. Turns out they aren't too bad to eat either.
