HAWG BLACK CRAPPIE - report

It took me a few hours to locate them, but after changing all the colors and changing depths I finally found where they were [emoji41]. The water was very clear and 52 degrees when I got started, and was around 56 degrees where I found them. When I headed back to the truck they was still bit-en. They bit bright colors and colors that had glitter. I absolutely love the little Cadillac I'm fishing out of, got it rigged up just right[emoji847]. The rudder I put on it makes all the difference in the world. Ended up with 25 full of eggs[emoji106]. The key to finding those fish was to keep moving. Caught them spider rigging out the front with 16 foot pro staff trolling rods. Good dayhttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...2261827c29.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...9154143264.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...f0ac5cb374.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...1d727be4d1.jpg

Nice setup and nice catch!!!

Great job ! Nice fish

Great job and post!!!!!!!!!!!

That's an awesome day on the water, congrats. Like your rig, bet it gets crazy when you hit a couple of fish at the same time.

Sweet sweet set up!

Good setup little Lake !

Thanks for the replies, there were times I had up to three fish laying in the floor. Trying to get them in the cooler and watch all the floats are near impossible sometimes.

Nice setup I have a boat about like that.How is your fish finder mounted?
I need to get one,what would you recomend?

The depth finder is a hummingbird, one of the cheaper models. It's really nice having one on there for depth and water temp. I have a bird 798 with side imaging that came off my other boat, that I may put on it.

I'm wondering how you attached the depth finder to the boat?Are the wires exposed & hooked
directly to the battery?

I got the depth finder mounted in the corner, I have the cables bundled together and run down behind the battery. Yes hooked directly to the battery.

Have you rigged the fish finder where it is removable? Thanks

Awesome rig! Love that rudder. Mind if I copy it?
