Good afternoon! I have bass fished for years, but I am brand new this year to crappie fishing. I am looking for some general information or guidance, and some starting points on what/where to look when searching for crappie, and what techniques and baits etc to use. I have some basic jigs, and stuff for live bait as well. I am familiar with Ouachita, but I am looking to learn some new water as well. Thanks in advance!!
Welcome to the best family friendly Crappie fishing site on the web! What method do you plan to use or how are you fishing, bank, boat? This site is full of info and people to help.
That is what I was hoping for! I have a boat so that will be my main fishing method
Ouachita has some gooduns pink heads 1/16 electric chicken lake fork jigs with boot tails was my go to there casting to the brush piles vertical jigging is tough when the water is clear there

Spring is around the corner. They will be moving up to the shallow flats. They will be easier to find then.
You have electronics to find brush ? If you have gps there are lots of brushpiles coordinates on AGFC website
Yes sir, I do have electronics. Still getting used to what im looking at with them!
Time on the water then more Time on the water. It always helps meQuote:

Best piece of advice I have gotten was slow down. Sometimes they want a very slow retrieve
Many of the guys like using spot lock on the brush piles. What TM do you have? Learn you SI on your console as well. Great way to find good cover.
