Welcome Aboard!
Welcome to C.c! Sticking around here and asking questions is one of the best opportunities you have for success on any body of water. Some great answers have already been said. Just like to know what presentations you've tried? And if you use your sonar? The particular species you are targeting would be helpful as well - black or white crappie?
Good Luck and we'll look forward to your reports and/or questions. You're in good company here.
