    Default Mighty Mite


    Got into a few nice ones this evening using the tiny Diawa Minicast 40 on a Shakespeare Micro Series UL baitcaster. Tied on a Bobby Garland Baby Shad Live Minnow with a 1g Shimano Soare jig head. This is a small, very lightweight setup, but it was well up to the task of pulling in these slabs. What a blast!

    Nice catch. I may have to pull out my Soare jig heads if I run out of Daiwa Gekkabijin jig heads.

    Regards

    Very nice setup and nice size fish. I’m going to try some small shad baits tomorrow - the creek has finally settled down from Isaeia. That was a massive water dump for sure!

    I've never seen anyone use a barbless hook on crappie , how well does that work?

    Nice little rig. Not much for the push buttons but I thought that was one of the better ones. I got excited at the title thinking it might be one like the open face I wore out years ago, called a mini mite. Great little reel. Really nice fish too.
