artificial or live bait?

I usually use a jig head with a plastic tipped with bee moth and in the summer i clean house on the crappie! I was wondering if in the spring maybe i should go to the trusty minnow? Just tryen to get some feedback. Ive cought a few crappie with my rig already but was thinken maybe the minnows would work better. What do you guys think?

I spider rig 10 rods...5 with jigs - 5 with minnows..

Then.. If the fish hit one over the other.. I may switch...

Sometimes they can be fooled with plastic....sometimes they want "meat"...

It's jigs all the way with us. There is alway's a color they will bite...may take some time to figure it out!!
