    Default new bait for crappie!!


    and it's called the mimic minnow fry jig. i bought one on the first crappie trip ever and landed 6 crappie! and got hits from many more, all in a hour and a half. you may think its just a rip off, but what if your bait shop runs out of minnows? plus its more durable! (can stand up to 9 fish or more before ripping, as opposed 1 hard flopping fish before death or minnow loss.):D

    I use them alot and they sure are a go to for me! I use a wide variety of jig heads with them also,as you no how from one day to another them lil. boogers can be pickey!!
    to fit to a smaller size hook at times i bite a lil. off the front of the bait to make sure the actoin is wright!
    I like the oranges and also use my dip and glow to sweeten things up.

    Been usin mimics for years. They aren't what they once were. A better option is Berkley gulp minnows.
    Good things come to those who bait.

    I tried the Gulp minnows, but all I could find were the small yellow curlytail ones in a pouch. I don't know if it was because the tails were all bent up from being in the pouch, but the darn things would not flutter. I ended up throwing them away.
    Don't worry, catch crappie.

    I caught a 13 incher out of Loramie last month. Biggest Crappie I've ever seen till I found this site.
