when crappie are present and the boat moves to and fro it can be very difficult to get your presentation so so .
we often anchor down on some of the boats I get to pitch out of and to be sure you can be on them 1 or 2 drops and gone when the boat swings .
does one guy have an advantage over the other in that scenario ? I would say it totally depends on who is sitting where and the proximity of the fish to ones boat position .
many times I feel the boat is not where the crappie are and I pitch in the direction of where the fish are best I can tell . sometimes that cures it for me sometimes not so much .
one thing for certain boat control and or lack of plays a major role in your ability to ketch crappie when they are in a holding stationary on something mood .
