Favorite jig/lure for casting during the spawn???
Lets hear everyone's favorite jig to pitch/cast to the bank for spawning crappie. I have not did any casting during the spawn for several years. I use to do very well with a 1/8 oz ponyhead and a 3" Lucky Strike curly tail grub in White/Chart and Black/Chart. Another favorite was a Chart/Red tail Charlie Brewer slider under a small bobber. It was rigged weedless and rarely got hung up when pitching it to stickup's around the bank and twitching it back towards the boat.

1/16 on any 2" chartreuse tail tube jig with a crappie niblet works great for me every year.

When I'm using a jig down in the timber/brush .... 1/16oz weedless ballhead w/#2 hook & a blue/char minnow shaped plastic.
When I'm casting around or over the timber/brush ... 1/16oz chartreuse marabou Roadrunner
Most often I'm casting with 6lb test Vicious Panfish hi-vis line for the weedless jighead/plastics ... and 10/2 PowerPro hi-viz braid for the Roadrunner.
Here's the jigheads & plastic minnows I use :
Top - brush fiber style .... bottom - Y shaped plastic guard ... custom made by site member Grousefly (Paul Mullins/ P&S Custom Baits)
My plastics
(plastics were formerly made by Keith Pace of Microspoons, before he went commercial. Now he isn't producing these, but I have had site member "Snake River" make me some clones that are pretty close.)

1/32 oz orange head, Berkley Power bait Nymph in burnt orange. Slaughtered em in more than several occasions off the bank. Don't know why. It seems more of a bluegill bait, but spawning crappie kill it.
The best way to get to where you want to be in the future is to act like you are there TODAY.

1/16 oz chartreuse or orange head with lime/chartreuse, white/chartreuse or orange/chartreuse are my favorites. Also black/chartreuse and blue/white are good. Last weekend used an all glo chartreuse shad that they liked better than all others.........first time using that, won't be the last.
We do not want the gift of a fish; neither do we expect a lesson on fishing; what we direly need is a chance to fish
