If two boats were fishing in a contest to see which could catch the most crappie. One boat fishing jigs, and the other boat fishing cranks, which would win? I think I know the answer.....:popcorn

Why not just pull a jig right about 3 ft above the crank!

If the contest was in the middle of Nov. on Sardis Lake, Ms. who do you think would win?
That depends on water temp.....but probably going to be jigs. But i have caught them on Sardis on crankbaits before the week before Christmas.

We have mostly blacks. On Martin I've found they will hit a jig long lining but are finicky when pulling cranks.
IMO I think the jig is the all around king, but I'm sure others may differ. Pulling jigs sure is cheaper on that debit card...ha
They both have their place, just like everything else. Sardis in November I'll take my jigs, thanks.
[QUOTE=ducker;3434528]Why not just pull a jig right about 3 ft above the crank!
How is this done.? A 3 to 4' leader with a jig attached to the swivel?
[QUOTE=wilbur;3435019]I use about a 4-5' leader with the jig about 3-4' above the crank. I tie a Fas Snap in a loop knot and snap a jig to it. Works like a champ.Quote:

I tangle my junk up to much to run jigs above my cranks. Lol. It's a major PIA to have both in a tangle situation!
Just think how it would be running braidQuote:

Anyone tried tying a jig on a dropper to the back hook of the crankbait? Small one won't kill the action...
I did that for years as well. Slider baits worked very well. The only down side is when you have to be a fish, it will make a mess.Quote:
