    I rig mine up with a 3" Styrofoam slip bobber, I use a #1 split shot and a 1/16 oz jig with minnow. I use that big of a bobber so I can add more weight if I have to increase my trolling speed. Also, if someone gets a big fish on, I stop trolling (when I remember). The big bobber will keep all the other poles from grabbing every thing on the bottom.

    I have a close tactic. I slow troll with on of thoes spring atached floats, and in about 6 feet of water i set on jig about four feet below the float alone or with a split shot attached.
    To land one of my crappie i need a gaff and a .22 pistal :D
