    Default A Better Instructional Setup Picture For Beginners And /or Teachers






    MORE CRAPPIE FOR THE FRYING PAN is possible if we would take a deep breath and just slow down. I dangled my jig motionless beneath my bobber letting the waves undulate and move the marabou. We had just had a nice cold front here in the Birmingham area and I knew this was the time to strike. It was calm, sunny and chilly for this area. I was using 1/32 and 1/64 jigs that move slow and P.O. the fiiish into attacking it. Result, 28 nice keeper crappie. Smallest was about 11 inches. :D :D :D A crappie will almost hook itself if you are fishing slow. Here is a drawing of my setup. The key is to slow down then slow down some more! Nine times out of ten slowing down will put more food on the table. Take it from "Old ship" and slow it down.:D :D :D :D

    You got to BS'ing me. I never catch fish when using a jig that is bigger than the freakin' fish!

    Nice art work.

    Thanks for the tip. For some reason it's hard to remember to slow down and leave the jog alone.
    John 21:3
    Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We are going with you also." They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing.

    And we act like this Nightstalking thing is new.

    For some excitment, read the next verse. A special guest arrived, they filled their coolers and had a fish fry on the beach...in the morning. My kind of people.- Bowfin

    Amen!
