Took my buddy Junious out to teach him my hang gliding technique yesterday. He’s a quick learner and he caught on quickly. We put over thirty nice crappies and a few nice white bass in the boat. Didn’t fish deeper than 12 feet.

That’s a nice tailgate full of good eats! Congratulations and thanks for sharing. Here is a video of Chaunc and his technique with Russ Bailey of Brushpile Fishing.

Had a good day crappie fishing at Shenango lake yesterday. Monday my nephew called and said he couldn’t find but two keepers. Asked him how deep he was fishing. Twelve and deeper was his answer. Told him I’m going to check shallow brush. It payed off big time. Nothing deeper than nine ft water.

That’s awesome Chaunc! Thanks for sharing
Good catches! Thanks for sharing
Did it again today. Same baits, different area of the lake. Put a limit of good solid blacks in the box today.

I tied some hair jigs yesterday and they worked so well, I tied a few more of them today. These are on 1/64 oz heads I got from my friend Joe Montello. He’s a local guy that pours jigs. Simple ties but very effective under a bobber.

You are a man of many talents sir. Thanks for sharing them with us
Took a friend out yesterday and we had a lot tougher time. Between snags, tangled line and missed fish, we only managed to put 13 fish in the box. Nice fish though. Still fished the same pattern as all week. Fish were there but snagging the brush and missing them was the problem. I’ll try again next week and hopefully do better.
Thanks for the report.
Had a good day. Put a dozen good crappies in the box. Jigs under a bobber did the work.

Thanks for the plastics Ketchn
Even better! Thanks for sharing
Best day I’ve had in quite a long time. Did some scouting today and stumbled onto a new, to me, spot. Hang gliding in 12 ft and casting a bobber and jig in towards the shoreline. Found a nice school of crappies in shallow. Fished them for over an hour before they moved on. I’m not using livescope. Went up lake to a different spot and caught my only pike of this season. 4lb test, 1/32 oz hair jig that my buddy Jim Gronow tied, and a bobber. Short fight in cold water. Put it in the livewell and the crappies moved in to the spot. Finished my limit there and headed back to the ramp. Nice weather and good fishing. Can’t beat a day like this. I’ll try again tomorrow though.

Congratulations Chaunc! Bet that was a nice battle with that pike.
Awesome job and beautiful catches. Nice pike.
Beautiful pike Smitty! Craig and I left with 9 keepers today. We caught just a few more after you left. Something seemed to slow the action on the whole lake today. It should have been a prime day for catching, but it sure was great to be out there.
I agree. I expected a better catch than I had. The day was beautiful though. I finished with a mixed bag of crappies gills and white bass. 15 total. May try a different area next week.Quote:
