    Default shell crackers & bluegill


    When do shell crackers go on bed in relation to bluegill. I have always heard they go earlier, and I have read somewhere that they are actually later. Can anyone shed a little light?

    sadly that site had shut down. i think the moderator got sick. there's another site along the same lines that has set up since then. pm me if you want the details. out of respect to crappie.com i hesitate to post another forum here.
