Hey guys I went out last night to,try my hand at crappie fishing first time I ever went. I tried some of the tips and tricks you guys sugested. Some worked others did not. But the important thing is I found out what works for me. I really didn't catch much because I was trying out different setups and rigging. Here are some,pics of what I got.... I'm so addicted to crappie fishing now Thanks for,the great tips Attachment 161509Attachment 161510Attachment 161511Attachment 161512

So what setup worked for you?
Nice fish, welcome to the board
I live in Emporia Kansas first off,if that gives you and idea of what the fishin is like for me. My setup is just a black and chartreuse tube with and red and chartreuse tube double jig setup with a slip bobber and about 2 to 2.5 feet of,line under the bobber. Oh and niblets I don't know if it was just that day but if I didn't put a nibblet on the hook no action. Oh and I'm,just fishin out of a 10 foot Jon boat. With a 30 lb thrust mini kota trolerQuote:

Ok so It is spring and all right now and the water is nice and warm s on I'm fishing the shallows later in the day during meal time the fish. Is that bad or what? I know during spawn that they get up in the shallows and what not. They also like brush fallen trees and around docks and stuff. What else should I know about them?Quote:

Where do you live? Do you know the water temps there?
