my name is brad i live down in central florida and have fished all of my 52yrs i mostly bass fished growing up but as I got older. I got bit by this crappie bug specks we call them down here lol.we used to fish with just a cane pole with minnows back then but in last 5 yrs I have learned to drag jigs around behind the boat and have great success at it . and learned a lot from other crappie fisherman and I am glad to be on a forum about it .
