    Default Reelfoot Crappie 1st post


    Found this site last week and have already picked up a trick or to.
    Got up this morning and saw a cold front hanging just to the north with a little rain and low winds and new this would be a good morning to fish.
    Loaded the boat and headed to the lake.
    Fished with tube jigs with an 1/8th head. Hot pink with white legs took 75% of the fish with the rest coming from a chartreuse silver flake. Jig heads where chartreuse.
    Fish came from 10-14 ft of water at about 8 feet. Big fella at the bottom is about 1.5 pounds.
    Caught about 25 or so and kept 13. Fished from 7-12 and left them biting.
    would have stayed all day but had to pick my boy up from school.
    Looking forward to participating in the forum.

    Thanks everyone.
    King Crappie, thanks for the color tips. The hot pink and white was from you and not a combo I was likely to try. Its in the box for good now.
    Looking forward to dedicating myself to this lake for a while.
    Time to figure those slabs out!
