I like Strollers or the Lake Fork ones with the notches in the tail.
There are times up here during ice season that minnows are as rare as hens teeth. When this happens i go for the one inch gulp minnow. Had a couple times when fished side by side the gulp was out doing the real thing. (but then i got smart and started dipping my live minnows in the gulp juice it was on like donkey Kong after that lol.
Crankbaits but single rig em most the time.:biggrin
1oz weights and zoom curly tail grubs pushed on sats sickle runners thats at Grenada anywho:biggrin
Bobby Garland Strollers, Mr. Crappie Jokers to name a couple. Donnies jigs work good also
1/8 oz pony head on bottom and 1/16 ball head on top. Just about any curlly tail or paddle tail jig will work. May have to pick your speed up a little to get the right action. I have also used the Storm wild eye shad baits in 2 in size that are pre rigged with some success.
this would be easy enough, think I have 47 doz.!:ThumbsUp would you fish just like with gnats as far as the set up ?Quote:

You can....just rig Capps and Coleman style with a half ounce weight inbetween.Quote:

Coach a lot of time I spider rig with 1/2 weight on bottom and hooks with tubes only, a drop of supper glue to keep the tube up has worked well for me in the past.
THANKS GUYS . OUR BAIT SHOPS AREN'T WHAT THEY USE TO BE ! :mad:
Strike king crappie Rage tails work for me, everyone has there own preference they all will work with the right color combination. I tend to use curly tail type jigs mostly 2 inch length
When trolling jigs I usually just use 1 per pole. Sometimes I put a weight above if I need to go a little faster or if the wind is up.
