    Default Not much help

    I don't know where you're from, but what I did when I started was go with people that already knew how to fish in my area. I tried different things and different approaches and found what worked for me and what I liked. I fished minnows for years and then went to jigs, which is all I use now. I recommend hiring a guide in your area for one trip and they will show you several ways they've found that work for them locally. The big thing is to go. This sounds simple, but since you have caught a few, then you have an idea of what's going on. Try different presentations, baits, and setups. Casting, verticle jigging, trolling, drifting, and or live bait. The methods are endless and even though I've been exclusively crappie fishing for 25 years, I still try to learn something everytime I go. Hope this gives you somewhere to start.

    one important thing is to find the depth where they are biting..use a light line with no weight and use minnows or grass shrimp..jigs will work well too but you will catch more and bigger ones with live bait..
