Single Poling what do you know?

[Foxy Jig]

any information is appreciated about single pole crappie fishing

I see guys on TV going to it a lot know and seek help with the following questions

1. is it essentially spider rigging but with 1 pole?
2. do you have to have live scope to do it?
3. are you moving? (sometimes I can't tell if the guys on tv are moving or not)
4. are you constantly moving or is it a stop and go thing?

thanks for any info or advice on this newly popular technique

I single pole all the time. I call it “casting”.

Check out SK's Crappie Catching Adventures on YouTube or Trout Magnet Man on YouTube. Couple of good members here and both single pole. SK is more of a vertical jig fisherman and Randy is casting. Hope that helps some.

I guess one could say it’s like spider rigging or spider rigging is more like it but with more rods. One/two poling or as I call it dipping I’m mostly using artificial bait whereas spider rigging I’m mostly using minners.

No you don’t have to have livescope. Here in OK we’ve been one/two poling way before livescope. How I started crappie fishing back in 2012 after seeing Todd Huckabee and others fishing this way. See a lot more folks going this method since livescope.

Sometimes I’m moving for instance if I’m trolling riprap or open water fish.

No not constantly moving. Sometimes sitting on structure other times as I stated in last comment.

I think I do both those thing's. Can't figure out using two rods at the same time. Last year was my first year fishing for crappie's and I learned with a bobber. Then read abut the slip bobber and love it. Then thing got tuff and I had to float around the lake looking for then and started simply casting and retrieving for them. Those guy's wit eight rods out blow my mind. Imagine getting a ht on all of them at the same time! The catfish guy's do the same thing. How do you keep the fish from tangling the lines?
