Absolutely Killer

You may have seen me post about this specific jig before, but I'm gonna tell y'all again, it's absolutely killer. Its rabbit hair soaks up the slabsauce, and the combination is lethal. This is my go to lure when one poling, and long lining too, but especially casting. When long lining I'll have a buffet out, but when I'm only casting one jig A black headed PICO Bunny Butt is my bread and butter. You can ask anyone that fishes with me. It's not secret. But this morning it worked awesomely. I got to my destination about 8:30 and got back home into the house by 9:30 this morning. That's it. And I caught at least 18 crappie, half of which were really nice fish. Here's all the different ones I got pics of as an assemblance of proof.

This first one pictured here still had it's tux on. It was the only one colored this way. Kinda freaky.

Wet Bunny Butt soaked in Slabsauce. That little tail shines and wags real nice too. Looks like Grass Shrimp IMHO.

New Bunny Butt. I'm stocked up.

There might be one duplicate fish pictured above. Hard for me to tell. But the rest are all different fish for sure, all caught on the Bunny Butt casting over and around weed piles. Not in pads at all, but there were pads nearby. Seemed like there was more eelgrass around, but not exclusively. 4-6 ft of water. If you're not catching them, slow down the retrieve till you're tickling the grass.

Very interesting!

Nice. Now I look forward to April. I bought those exact ones over the winter to use in a tournament in April. Your post really got my attention!

Pretty jigs. I have some rabbit and have yet to tie a jig with it. What am I waiting for???? :dono

Nice fish! Nice jig! Nice weather! Awesome report!

The one in the 1st pic is a beautiful specimen.

Wow, you did real good for sure, and congrats Slab. Couple months or so here, before they start spawning.

Nice catch and report. Your confidence in bait, color and slab sause paid off well.

Original Slabsauce. But since I dunk the jig in a jar full of the sauce, and at various times there's been g-sauce in their too, there's likely a little garlic smell left in their as well. No bobber, just loop knot tied Bunny Butt. 6 lb test Mr. Crappie line. BnM rod n reel. Long cast with the wind behind me. Retrieved as slow as possible, often hitting the weeds. Don't reel right-a-way after the bait hits the water, you have to let it get down just a bit, otherwise it'll stay too high in the water column during the retrieve. It's just what I do. Everyone has to find their own rhythm I guess. But thanks for asking.

I never use weedless. I always feel I'll miss some fish, but that's just me.

Some nice slabs there Slab! Congrats on a good outing.

Great report! I have everything to tie those jigs so I’ll be getting started on that for sure
