How do you figure? Last I checked nets were ILLEGAL for crappie. So there really is no comparison between yo yos for crappie and nets??? I know it may not be your preferred method to catch crappie, but all I asked was if anyone on here had used them for crappie. Im not asking what yalls opinions are on using them. Feel free to post up if you use them, but keep the whole "yo yos for crappie isn't fair" to yourself.

I have caught a couple good ones on jugs when baited with live minnows or live shad. But wasn't targeting them.

yeap...that's how it works in a bunch of guys. Your in a bar,or on a construction sight at lunch, or in a tackle shop and you ask a group of knuckle draggers something and nobody says a word except the guy who has the exact answer you were looking for.

I use to think forums might be different too.

This subject comes up every year. If you already know it's legal you have your answer. Short answer, if it's legal and you fish them properly,good.If you don't like them don't use them. Before long This subject usually turns into a for and against argument. While this thread managed to stay okay, and I commend you guys for that, it looks on the borderline of turning bad. For that reason I am closing this thread."D"
