    Default crankin for crappie


    I've been having more and more success crankin. I've swithced to 10/2 PP braid. My question is in clear water should I be using a floro leader? And should I be using the moss green crankin instead of the hi vis yellow or does it matter crankin?

    Crankin is simply pulling crankbaits, trolling, usually on long lines behind the boat. I pull from a kayak with two poles on each side.

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
