I got out on Waconia with jack for a couple hours of crappie fishing. I thought they would really be smacking with the warm day and the storms coming. That was not the case, they were finicky. I through a rattlebass with no response but a few bumps. Went down to a 1/16th oz roadrunner with a paddletail, and coaxed a few but it was still slow with short strikes. Switched to a 1/32 crappie tom jighead with a black and yellow culprit paddletail using a slow lift and drop retrive with an occassional pop to free it from the weed in 4 to 78 ft did the trick. Nothing huge, but enough to make it interesting.
What is in my bucket today?
