Thanks!
They are Bobby Garlands bait and similar to Slab Slayers except have a split tail. They are 21/4" in length. Hope this helps.....Ranger
Thanks, Ranger. I thought that's what they were, but I wan't sure. Now I dont have to wonder. :)
Yes and no. We do fish them vertical longlining,dipping,swimming, and cast and dragging. As you see they work in several different techniques. Hope this helps.....Ranger
Well I found some fish biting at night with a jig and a cork, 1-2ft deep ;) This is my favorite way to catch them! EB
Fished the north end this morning and was able to keep 21 really nice fish with the biggest two going 2.2 and 1.14. Had 13 short fish as well. When the wind got up and blowing hard they got the lock jaw and only got one bite in the last hour I fished. Baits were blk/chart wollybee and pumkin/chart slab slayer. DOW was 8' to 14' and in brush. Method was longpoling vertical baits. WT was 55.3....Ranger
Fishing the local dock here at Arrowhead, I caught 9 crappie Saturday afternoon on both jigs and minnows. First hour they only hit jigs, wouldn't touch the minnows. Later it reversed, they would take a minnow and ignore the jigs. They were only biting 3-5 feet below the surface and it was always a light bite. This was right before the front came rolling in from the north with colder weather. Sunday, after the front hit, they got lockjaw and that was all the fishing I got done over the weekend. It was refreshing to catch a few, sure a lot better than what I have been doing. Seems they may be picking up. Good luck to all and keep your powder dry.
