Tons of short fish today! Made plans to go out with a friend this afternoon in his boat so this morning I did a little wading to pregame and kill some time. Caught one 9.5” crappie first cast on a white 1/32 maribou jig. I was thinking to myself this might be decent today. I was Wrong caught 9 more crappie all 8.5 and under. Packed it up and went to the ramp to meet my friend got to the area we wanted to fish first cast 8” crappie on the white maribou jig. Told my buddy at least we know they are here. Caught a couple more little guys then decided to switch to a smaller presentation. Orange 1/80th jig and one inch black Shad gulp. Immediately smacked an 11” er . Then the dinks came again caught over 20 crappie 6-8.5” caught one other good crappie other than that.
The small ones were the only thing that wanted it today and even then I had to work them. That jig needed to be popping and twerking like it was on the champagne stage! Water temp was 48.7 the sunshine felt good even tho it was chilly out. Still nice to be on the water and not at work [emoji41

The 1inch gulp minnow in either black Shad or watermelon is as Bigeyurk25 said deadly. Paired with a 1/64th or 1/80th jig orange is my go to jig color white is my 2nd choice. If the crappie are around they seldom turn them down. I really like it when I can get them going on 1/32 maribou jigs and hair jigs.

Well looks like it’s gonna be a wet one today! I’d be out fishing in the warm rains today but the geniuses at work THINK I’ll be able to be productive today. Personally I think it’s a waste of time but whatever my lottery numbers haven’t come up yet so I’ll go along with their screwy ideas. Hopefully someone gets a chance to get out today I have a personal feeling that the bite is going be Today! Best of luck to whoever makes It out please post up some fish porn I’ll need it to get me through the day. And to help me resent the foolish ideas of management.
