Trolling for crappie tends to be the best (my belief) and easiest ways to catch those elusive, wonderful tasting fish. Here are few suggestion to help you achieve a plate full of those mouth watering crappie.
Start out with two 1/16 baits (jigs) about eighteen inches apart.
Use a bobber setup (read article on bobbers)
Different colors as long there is chartreuse in the color scheme.
Cast out and let it out about 35 feet of line.
Troll or row .8 to 1. miles per hour in a zig zag pattern near willow pads, brush and remember they like shade.
Keep your pole in a pole holder set up.
Watch the bobber and or line. Remember just a twitch of the line or bobber is what you will be watching for.
DON’T stop the boat when trolling, have 2 people in the boat with multiple poles in the water. Keep as many poles as the law allows. If you don’t you will loose the correct depth where the fish are, then it is a matter of starting all over finding the depth etc. This is where a second person can help keeping the boat moving and re-baiting.
I just started spider rigging this year (a month ago), and I love it.
