Hello New from Louisiana.

Hello fellow Socalait (crappie) fisherman. Just joined today. Ive been fishing my pond behind my house with alot of success when the temp reaches the upper 70s and low 80s. Last year this time it was in that temp. but now its cooler in the 60s and i find that the fish are suspended so i wanted to try and old trick i used to do at kentucky lake and troll. im using two 1/32 jigs about afoot apart on the same line. but cant really tell how deep they are running. i want to run in about 4-6ft of water. last year i pulled two tiny crankbaits on two different poles. and had success. but not working this time.

Btw. just last weekend. i was tossing a curly tail 1/48 with a cork about 6foot from the bank and caught 4 big black males in the same spot. but it wasnt fast (about 30 Mins). they were all cut up and i assume from fanning beds? if so does this mean the females are to follow?

First of all welcome, I think you are going about it the right way, sometimes its just a trial and error thing. Different colors, jig size and or depth and speed until you find the pattern they like. I think you are also right about the males getting the place cleaned up for the ladies to move in. Good luck.

That must be some pond you got there if you can longline troll and pull cranks in it...

from Texas. I believe you can use that technique just about anywhere and catch crappies, especially this time of the year.

Welcome from Mississippi.

Welcome and from all I've read and seen, in here and out there on the water, the answer in my opinion to your question is; Yes. Again, welcome from Missouri.
