Crappie Fishing MUST Haves from Wally World

[sushi]

This is a photo from ONE of the aisles at Wally World. SO MUCH for a new Crappie Fisherman like myself.

What are your MUST haves from walmart or a similar store ?

Favorite tubes, reels, fishing line, attractant spray etc>>>>?

it depends on what technique u are using. different strokes for different folks.

Just like hunter mentioned, it depends a lot on what methods you are interested in trying...

Minnow fishing.... Get light wire hooks, splitshot weights, bobbers, 2-8lb line.

Casting.... Get small jig heads, plastic tubes, curly tails, 2-8lb line.

Trolling.... Same as casting list and also get various crankbaits...

The list goes on and on but if you stock your tackle by what method you are going to use....it's alittle easier to break it down in what you need....

We got 4 -6 boxes of "Must Have's" now. Add that to our "Must Have Rods" and we got a boat full. lol

I do my best to try and not buy anything from wal mart. Especially fishing supply's. The only thing I have ever bought from there was some line and a jar of crappie nibbles. That was because I was in a pinch and they were open late. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with wal mart. It's just who I'am. Mostly though our wal mart does not carry the rods and reels that I use. Nore do they carry the baits and hooks I prefer.

Thanks so much Rickie. I guess I am going to be trying casting and Minnow fishing. Since I am new here, I am going to be looking at lots of the great stickies!

I heard that Academy is AMAZING! We have one here in Atlanta, but I've never tried to go. Puttin' it on my list

You must have some of those great little old bait shops that you buy from!
Walmart is just so affordable compared to those bait shops. I am on a crazy budget.

Our Academy here has more crappie stuff then all the stores combined. They are even priced like Wally and some times better. You really need to get there.
