Summer in the south OFTEN turns water into pea soup , those that live down this way know the water clarity I speak of .
It pays BIG dividends to have a BOLD colored jig and or almost black one on right now .
the bites are just a whisper and light peck in most places at the current water temps. and it is really tough to get a fish to hit hard right now .
the next possibility is lots of contrast , bold and black mixes and light and dark choices , red and chart was really good yesterday and of course the ketchn karrot hurt them good as well .
just a thought if you are after summer crappie in Texas , some of the bites are not EVEN a bite!
was is it stupid good you might ask as we sat in the shade an hour and a half right after lunch at 103 outside and hammered a hundred plus crappie , not really really good for 2 people would be my answer ,but not really really bad either :Rofl
and note this , the largest fish were in shallow water at around 3 foot deep , the deeper water fish in the 12 foot range were not near as solid sized.
KABOOM is the word yawl :highfive
p.s. AND IF you aint' got scent on the jig you ain't ketchn , that's a fact :cheers2
