Had a chance to do a little trolling at Greers yesterday afternoon. Fished from 4:00 till about 9:00. Ended up with 17 crappie 1 hybrid and 3 bluegill. Will try to get some pictures this afternoon.

Sounds like you had fun.
How fast do you trolling? What colors work best for you? I'm gonna try some trolling soon. Just order $50 of bandits from BPS and waiting on them to come in.
I love Bandits for bass fishing, but I have never caught Crappie on them. What series do you use?
Sounds like a good trip.
Here is a couple of pictures.

Some nice crappie Slick, I'd like to try trolling crankbaits down here sometimes.
good catch
Were you using the 200 or the 300 series Bandits?
Great trip! Call me at home when you have a chance.
creekslick,
I would also like some more technique info. You said between 1.5 -2 mph, but did you use line counters, or planer boards? There was a chart on how deep bandits ran at specific line distances around here somewhere. any info would help.
I was on greers last week, trying to figure out how to catch walleye. hired a guide to try to put us on fish, but it didn't pan out. we trolled harnesses with nightcrawlers, on ledges and humps. never did find any fish. I learned a lot, but was a little dissapointed that we didn't catch anything. we fished in the morning also.
Got me a handful of bandits the other day. Can't wait to try 'em out on some of my favorite oxbows, just the ones without much cover. I think I'd cry if I hung all of 'em at one time and broke off.
Couple questions for you Slick. Do you use your electric or gas motor? And what line do you use?
I think the TM would work out better for me. Are you using your front rod racks?
Creekslick,
What size weight would you use if you did like the question that I had in my post in this thread?
This what you are looking for?
