Crappie Lesson from My Dad.
Sorry for the dark pic's had to get to many last cast's left them biting.Got another lesson from a bass,white Bass, hybrid,Walleye fishermen. Arkie 2 in and 2.5 in Crappie tubes and Grubs, Caught more Male crappie and Bigger Male Crappie than ever Before on Our Home Lake.Usually use braid.(learning curve) Had to go to 4 lb test momo,(2 lb would even be better)(Mr Crappie)(camo) My dad(81) uses(nothing else) one tough strong line and Slow Down!!! when you think you are slow enough slow down some more.Barley move or crawl the bait over or through the brush pile!!!(COE,Game & fish) The Crappie and Bass,Walleye, White Bass,Hybrids seem to be thinner Than in years past.Must have been a real hard winter. Not seeing the big huge schools of shad as we saw last spring and last fall. Thanks D-10,(Matt & Matt)COE and all who have strived to make our fishing Top Notch.We have some of The best if not the Best fishing anywhere.Growing up fishing Greers,Norfork was some of the best crappie fishing anywhere!! AND Still is. We crappie fished and would catch a limit of crappie on the first cedar tree we tied up to. A minnow and two split shot drop to bottom reel up two turns of reel bam crappie on for meat for the camp.Cleaned them Bass Fished for Fun.Our TWO CENTS.

Hes (MY Dad) Retired Army. (Japan) He says using 2 & 4 lb line is for sissy's. The Sissy was using 4 lb test. Had to blow the dust off the never opened 4 lb spool of line.LOLOriginally Posted by Fosh

Nice bunch of fish Jackie ! I am glad to see them ! With the lack of shad in the lake and the poor health of some of the fish I was getting worried about our home waters. I still am not sure what happened to all the shad , I have never seen them disappear like this from the lake before ? Lets just hope we get some high water and maybe a little help from the game and fish to bring back the bait . D10 was kind enough to visit with me on the phone and I appreciate him taking time to do that.
