    Default rattles


    How many use rattlin baits for Crappie ? I know we used them for years on Bass . I just got in a batch of glass rattles and think it might not hurt to use inside tube jigs with water so durn muddy right now .

    I tried the high dollar Rock Port Rattlers and they seemed to work good. They just hurt my feelings (wallet) when ever I would lose one in a brush pile. I also tried out the small glass rattles and the thing I didn't like about them was that they decrease the gap width of the hook on smaller jigs. I'm not sure if they really affected any hook ups or not though.

    I use only big jigs and plan putting on bottom side of jig not in gap area of hook .

    I've got a bunch of the Rockport Rattler Outlaw Specials. They help some I guess, but they aren't the Magic Wand.

    What kind of jig/bait is the Magic Wand. I assume by your post that they work really good. Please PM where I can obtain these Wand baits. I'm also searching for shells loaded with the golden BB for duck hunting if anyone has any info on that as well.

    The "Magic Wand" changes as we age. I remember having it, but can't seem to find it every since I past the age of 45. I guess they don't make it anymore. I was hoping technology would prevail and someone would come up with a new "Magic Wand" so I've tried all the new fishing gadgets trying to find it. rattlesrattlesrattles

    I do use the old "Magic Wand" I have left on rare occasion, but with fear of loosening it, I just leave it hanging in the box!!! I'm like you tho. It seems all the gold is missing from the BB's in the box!!! rattles
