When You’re Hot You’re Hot

And when you’re not you’re not! Such has been my experience while crappie fishing. There have been times, when I am on them and they are flaming hot! Other times I have deployed the same techniques in the same location and had drastically different results. I guess that’s why they call it fishing and not catching.

Last week, I had a new personal best. I left with 18 keepers, and probably caught 40. These fish were caught vertical jigging with my trusty 11 foot rods. Naturally, after having such great success, I had to go get a taste again. As the world turns, and the grease burns, the fish keep moving on. I deployed, identical techniques and colors, but my second trip I left with 4 keepers and might have caught 10. The 4 were donated to a good friend for tacos! Sharing is caring y’all.

It has been said, that weather has a profound effect on fish. That, too, has been my experience. Light mist right before Front, I, absolutely hammered them, and got closer to a limit than I have ever gotten before. A few days later after the front, the fish were there, I could see them on my live scope, but alas, they were not interested in any of my offerings.

All in all, I had a great time catching fish and discovered a new place to employ my shenanigans. Thanks to all on Crappie.com for the pointers and advice to get me on fish.

God bless you all.
