Rooster Tails

[Greg_Mathis]

Are they good to use for crappie fishing?

[Crestliner08]

I would think they should be, however, every time I've put one on I either catch bluegill, rock bass or pickeral up here! If you want to try a spinning type lure, check out a few of the Roadrunners that are tied up with marabou tails. Great crappie lures!

I have had good luck using them for crappie.

So whats the trick? Slow reeling or medium. I have caught bass off rooster tails just not the fish i looking for. Lol

Does the size of the rooster tail really plays a factor.

Rooster tails are my goto bait. White is my favorite color. Reel just fast enough to make the blade spin. 1/16 oz. is my favorite size. I have caught everything on them, cats,bass,bream,crappie...

they work great if not around anything. another flaw is they need to be tuned. most will spin and twist line. when you get them running correctly in open water they will catch just as many as a small safety pin type spinners. if you have wood and weeds use safety pin spinner.
