Xpress Crappie Rigs

[Knobbymag]

Hey y'all, I have an Xpress H18 and think it could be a near perfect crappie boat. I keep making plans on setting up a spider rig, and simply making it more fishing friendly. Does any one else have a similar rig? I am looking for ideas. One thing I don't want to do is drill a bunch of holes in my boat, only to move what I have mounted. So setting it up correctly first is the plan. Thanks for any ideas, and y'all have a great site.

We're on our second Xpress and have made some modifications to better rig it for crappie. When it's daylight and warmer, I'll send you some pics!

They're all closefaced Zebco 11T's. Been using them for many years and they've held up really well.
