Went Wednesday by myself and wore them out! Me and WC went back Thursday and put the smackdown on them. Used the SLAB RIG - color didn't seem to matter. 10-12 feet of water at 1 mile per hour. Water temperature in the high 70s. As always, had a big time.

Great day....And Great looking rig!!
Man that looks like a blast!!!!!
What's the difference in long lining, spider rigging, pulling cranks etc...
Yessr I am! Worked fantastic?
The slab rig that is.
JPJ- Spider rig pushes out the front. Longline means to pull jigs out the back. Very simple. I DRAG crankbait s out the back using line counter reels set a specific length s. Longline 1 mph. Crankbait 2mph. Give or take a few tenths either way. Hope this helps.
When you long line how much line do you let out? I'm guessing it depends on what fow the fish are at. Could you give me an example for clarification?
Keep after em .
Just a normal cast. Wed. The hit a long cast- Thurs a short.? I'm guessing 30- 50 ft?
Very nice catch man! Looks like no lake is safe from you!
I have a few questions. What's the purpose of the loop knot at the top of the slab rig? I assume it is a way to attach to the main line? Why not just use a swivel? Also, is the hi-vis line necessary for long-lining? I'm not a big fan of it. If so, what is the major benefit? Sorry for all the questions, I am getting ready to take the plunge into long-lining and cranks, and only want to have to rig up once.
Nice catch longlining is the ticket.
Fancy names for trolling, wih spider rigging being a fancy name for trolling with a lot of poles :RoflQuote:

This is where I talked about what I called the "Slab Rig" originally, no biggie really, just a variant of what everyone does anyway. http://www.crappie.com/crappie/conte...acation&page=2Quote:

And yes, I use a loop at the front so I can switch from cranking to long lining easy enough. To switch up on speed mostly. I prefer to crank to cover more ground when they are not hitting, so I can find them more quickly.
Nice fish congrats!
Great pics, and one heck of a mess of fish. You go boy [emoji57]
Way to go man, WC needs to go back to work and leave a few fish for the rest of us.:biggrin
