Just introducing myself
Hey folks, I just wanted to introduce myself and say a quick hello. My name is Ron (aka Doodlebug). I live over in Ludowici near the Altamaha river. Moved here a few years ago from Milledgeville (lake Sinclair). Fished mostly for bass and inland salt water, but am now wanting to get started crappie fishing. Just picked up an old aluminum bass style boat and want to get it outfitted for crappie fishing.
I've been snooping around on the site and reading a lot, but I'll still probably have a boat load more questions, so I hope I don't aggravate y'all too much.
Just wanted to say howdy.

Hello Ron and welcome!
Getting your boat rigged for crappie fishing depends on the style you want to use. I originally set up my boat for spider rigging from the front slow trolling. I have since started long lining. You will probably need rod holders. I have Tite Loks but I have been hearing a lot about SPYDER LOK holders (they look nice). Then you will need rods 10,12,14,16 feet long depending on your taste. Look for them at BPS and B'n'M to start. You can search CDC for information and go to you tube for crappie fishing/spider rigging. Hope this helps.

Welcome aboard Ron, CDC is great and you will learn a lot. Altamaha has plenty of crappie and has been producing a lot of fish in the mouths of the creeks and sloughs this year.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Looks like I've come to the right place. Going to do my best to make the CDC get together on Mar 28 and hope to meet as many of you guys and gals as I can. Thanks again.
