Monday-Burnt Mills-64 crappie

I figured I would have some fun with the 9" crappie so I headed out to Burnt Mills. I picked up 30 at my first stop and had 50 by noon but did not have much luck exploring new spots in the afternoon and only picked up 14 more. Caught most in water 17'-20' deep fishing 16' down with wasshoppah's and the Money jig. I had one that was maybe 11" and the rest were 9" and less.

7 minute video.

Gopro for christmas? Cool video

Good post George. It brings back a lot of fond memories when I could get out there in the cold.

WTG George. Is it official yet? Burnt Mills is Dinkville?

If one watches closely a lot of information is included.
Thanks for doing that tap.
Excellent live time video

I have some in my garage and the cold weather reminded me to put them back in my tackle box.

Nice job tap looked like fun

nice video

Nice video George, thanks. It helps seeing that when I am not going. So you fish with the shadcbodybin money color and not the grub? Is it on a jighead under the weight? Does the washoppa have wings? Who makes them?

I really like the cam setup.

I like that video wish I could see you work the poles, it looked like you were motionless and they hit the jig. Do you use rod holders or lay your poles just in the boat. I am glad to see I am not alone in tangling up the jig and weights in the rod line. It can be so tough and then your hands get cold.

I use the 2" Lil Wasshoppah. I have a 11' rod just laying across the boat and a 4'6" rod in a rod holder with them. I only cast with the Money jig. I have caught crappie casting wasshoppah's but I pretty much just use them for vertical fishing. I generally don't work the two poles with Wasshoppah's, I just move around very slowly with them. Every now and then I will hold a pole in my hand and work the jig into structure.

That was supposed to say "fish with the shad body money jig not the grub body?"

thanks for info,great video

Great video, Tap! :cheers2 Very instructional and helpful. Thanks alot!

I only wish you were sexier looking! :biggrin
