How do crappie manage to get hooked in the bottom of there mouth

[TreednNC]

I think this is the most logical answer to the question.

ClearCreek

That and the temporary moment of slack a bite from a forward/upward swimming fish after a bait may cause, and the jig tips over from momentarily not being tight.

ketched a small one right under the bottom lip the other day and thought about ya .....just saying .
according to my bud it was because they sometimes just hit the blades on bladed baits .
Me dont think that though ,me thinks things just happen sometimes .....

They do some strange things. I have managed to hook a few in the tail.
