Go Go minnows = KABOOM

I recently came across a few packages of a charcoal clear with silver flake Go Go minnows hidden at a local bait shop in an area that had nothing to do with crappie ? I asked the lady why they were over there and she said it was an accident and they got some in an order from Fle Fly and didn't actually carry Go Go minnows ??? I told her as I bought a few packages of them that who ever orders is making a huge mistake not ordering them .Told her they are flat out deadly crappie baits and she could check with one of the local crappie guides and ask him about me using them in a boat beside him last year and he would confirm they are the KABOOM :biggrin
So I took them to the lake out west of Ft Worth and pitched them off a dock in deep water and let them slow fall back to me , brought me home a nice bunch of fat crappie . I was actually hunting that day and only pitched a jig for a couple of hours ,but I am sure if was so inclined another hour or so and I would have had my limit .
So you see Go Go minnows actually do equal KABOOM .....:Rofl
And here are the photos to show the transition from the store to the lake to the table .
Stay tuned but don't stay thirsty :cheers2

Color, movement, size, or what other attribute can you think of that made them so effective?

the tail simply never STOPS the fluttering action that most crappie just cant seem to resist and I am sure the flash of the sparkle didn't hurt the overall either ...the 1 inch size in them is also just about perfect it seems to me ....almost no movement on the jig in terms of you doing something in particular to it and the tail is likely still moving ...

I bet folks pushing and pulling extra slowly would really like them ...they are soft though and I mean extra soft so maybe take 2 bags as you might burn a few up if you find the fish

I bet you have to hook them on right if long lining like I do! Good looking soft plastic though!

Skip

I've used them some, good product. VERY soft, and the tail is oriented 90* to the body rather than the traditional in-line arrangement we are used to. Those two things may help make them move so easily, for they clearly do. But Skip is correct in that you need to get it dead centered the first time for they will not take a lot of adjusting. I also use and like their Kicker. And that bubble gum juice ain't so bad either. Since I started tying I don't use hardly any plastics, but these are good ones. Chartreuse and the Firecracker work well for me.

They are my go to bait for creek fishing white bass. I need to try them on crappie.
