We use gnats when running spider rigs, 2 gnats tipped with crappie niblets,,,my favorite colors are blue/ white and usually with whatever color niblet you have,,white, chartruce, metallic silver or gold,,,,it’s about flavor with those…
What’s your favorite and why? Stained or clear water!
Mine of course Crappie Magnet! Stained I like pink/black with chart head. Clear any of the blues. And I can’t ever leave out troutmagnets , they work great as well sometimes when I’m trolling I’ll run 1/4oz on bottom and troutmagnet on top.

I’m liking orange/chartreuse more and more in stained water. Home lakes near HS it’s hard to beat black/chartreuse. I have bags of crappie magnets bought at Grizzly Jig shows never even tried.

All I use is Southern Pro tubes . I like insert jig heads . Only 2 baits . Orange/chartreuse Little Hustler 2.5'' on a 1/4 oz or purple/chartreuse Umbrella tube on a 1/8 oz jighead . Presentation means much more than color or bait to me . Livescope has proved alot of what I believed as I have put a bare unpainted jighead on their nose and bam ! . Crappie sit right on bottom real often and perfer baits still as possiable . Lots of guys thought Crappie were not biting when going to favorite brushpiles with no luck . Look out in the open and many times on bottom , put a jig on them and game on . I like longer rods because I can hold it on their nose and farther out . To show guys about not jigging their baits alot for years I showed them this . Hold your bait out on your line on a long pole and try to hold it still . That jig vibrates or wiggles just from your heart beat no holding it perfectly still no matter how you try . Nothing beats confidence no matter what bait or pole you fish with .
I dont have a favorite bait , I carry tons of them with me in my truck and make a guess as to what they would like to see on any given day or water body .
some spots require less than traditional offerings to get lots of bites ,some not so much . water clarity ,time of year , and preferred food sources influence me greatly ,along of course with what they wanted the last visit to whatever spot I hit .

I have several favorites, plastics and hand tied.
I’ve noticed on water that is heavily fished, color that other people aren’t using sometimes helps catch fish. Also presentation makes a huge difference.

I like Bobby Garland Baits in Monkey Milk and anything orange. I also use nibbles doused in Slab Sauce. I am going to try Berkley Shad Minnows this spring.
