Man that last pic is fat one!!! Nice fish Steve
I didn't know that crappie eat their own.....
Adult crappies prefer forage fish found in the open-water areas of reservoirs,
particularly thread-fin and gizzard shad. They are, however, often willing to
feed on anything that fits into their mouths, including their own young. When
little or no prey fish are avail able, which is often the case during the winter and
early spring, adults will shift back to feeding on insects.
Does this have any affect on the bait you use during those times? My son was asking just yesterday if you ever use crickets.Quote:

I have caught em on crickets as well but its not a bait I choose when targeting crappie, crappie were just a bonus while bream fishing.
If I remember I think BigH, uses crickets
Ive caught lots of bream and crappie putting a wax worm on a 1/16th oz. jig.
I was there bream fishing but the crappie were right there with them, Most every fish came off the same stretch of bank!
And that stretch of bank was Exactly where? HeheheQuote:
