    Pitching docks in the spring and shooting them in the summer.
    Caught so many fish today my thumb is sore from clicking the counter.

    dont make me choose :o depends on my mood generally. Over all, probably tightlining whether it on brush or a creek channel. Could catch a 4" white perch, 8in crappie, 16" crappie, or a monster cat that takes half the morning to get in, not that you couldnt do the same in other methods, just tends to happen more when I do that.

    Wink That's easy, for me ....

    it would be swimming a jig, as in casting out and very slowly reeling back in. Single jig - weedless jighead/plastic body. Watching for the line tic, or waiting for the "thump".
    Second would be shooting docks.
    Third would be Vertical Casting.

    These aren't the ways I've caught the biggest Crappie that I've ever caught, but they're the ways I've caught most of what I've caught over the last 20+ years

    Long line trolling a jig (Roadrunner are hard to best with marabou tail) in the Spring and Fall. Summer I fish brush piles or over creeks usually vertically.
