all kidding aside I sure like wearing crappie.com t-shirts , sometimes they make me feel lucky and then other times I just feel lucky to wear one . :highfive
do they enhance the ketch rate you might ask ? Not terribly sure is my answer because the scientific studies I am involved in are not complete ......rotfl
grabbed one out of the closet yesterday and off I went to work ....lunch break and off I went to the water ....
the particulars ....
over cast , drizzling just a light tad , north wind and a bit chilly ....not great for dock ketchn most of the time .
pitched a pretty jig in dark pink and white ,,,,,,about nothing going on ,,,,
bought said oh well and then decided to try a different profile and much different color ....
the struggle was quite real I tell ya , but 2 things were noticed , one they would ONLY take the jig on a VERY slow rise !
2... they seemed to like the dark color jig better than the light color jig ...
now was this study all scientific , not so much and the owner of said dock asked me why the fish were not biting lately ...
my response was that they are often wandering when the sky is darkened and they tend to stack up better when the sun is making serious shade there, and often times the bite is so terribly light in the summer that, some folks never realize they even got bit !
now did I hammer you might ask , nope not really , but 15 or so in an hour beats heck out of not trying to ketch them for sure ,,,,,AND especially if you are wearing the appropriate apparel to do so .....:highfive
KABOOM is the word btw :cheers2
