OK ... I know these vid's are just part of an ad for the "Reel Weeds" .... and their purpose is to show that these "fake weeds" will draw Crappie ... but, I think they serve a greater purpose, in showing us how Crappie ease up to a bait, nip at it, and/or suck it in I wish they had shown some different presentations, and some different baits ... but, that wasn't the point of their efforts. Still, they were interesting .... thanks, Jerry !! ........ cp
