x 3. Didn't take long after talking to him that I knew he was the one to get my business, once I got ready to purchase. Brian is a good guy, and his prices can't be beat. And yes, quick shipping...

Some good stuff here, guys. Very helpful. I hope others chime in with their ideas and techniques as they relate to this.

Done, Rickie. Thanks for calling this to my attention.

Hey Slabs, were you retrieving with your plastics at a certain depth, or mainly just letting it sit and dance with the water? Looks like you guys had some serious fun. Love it!

I've got to chime in too... Wow! Those really are some beautiful fish. I'll tell you what, Maine don't take a back seat to anybody, with catches like that. Nice.

Good stuff here, skeetbum. I may just have to give braid a try. That's really what I was after in this thread--wanted to see what people use themselves, and why. You certainly make a good case...and...

I was sort of expecting that as well, but just wasn't sure. I've never used it myself, but apparently there's not likely to be a huge difference in that and a good quality mono or what I am using...

Hey All,

I'm just about to get started in trying to learn how to vertical jig...can't wait to feel the thump. Fortunately, there's been a lot of good information come forth here on the forum...

Hey RR,

Thought there would be more interest in this--I am surprised. Anyway, I thought it did sound quite interesting for sure. It reminded me of the concept behind Megastrike, which is really...

Hey All,

I know some of you are big on attractants of some kind, whether it be the Crappie Nibbles, Slab Sauce, or something else...I know there are others. Anyway, there's one that's relatively...

X2...to an awful good jighead maker. Hope it's been a good one.

Alan, from Georgia.

Good stuff here, Rickie. I think, in the meantime, I will stay tuned and see how things progress...hoping HB works out the issues you are having. Haven't even ordered my 898 yet, so I'm in no hurry....

Mikey,

Some good info here. And I can tell you, the words of CP come from an awful lot of experience.

Thanks, short grub. This is one of the best posts anyone will EVER see on this site. Awesome...and very touching.

Yeah, you're right, Ship. A lot of experience being shared here, and I greatly appreciate it. Thanks to all who chimed in with their thoughts. I've got some direction now--something to work with.

Thanks, Rickie. Another excellent link with LOTS of helpful info, especially for a newbie. Actually, I would think there are many who could benefit from both of these links you posted. Much...

Thanks, guys...some good suggestions here. I'd like to hear more from others who who have done this for so long and specialize in this technique. At least now I've got something to go on. Just need...

Hey All,

First of all, I am a newbie--a complete rookie, with no experience whatsoever at crappie fishing. That said, I've found the right place to learn, right here at this site. Also, thanks to...

Yes, that I will, Greenwing. Looking forward to getting it in and getting on the water...though I know the learning curve will be steep, especially for someone like myself who's never had anything...

This is awesome--thanks for the link, Rickie. Lord willing, I will soon be the owner of an 898...looks like a lot of good information here.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Sounds like I have some flexibility--I just need to find what works best for me. Much appreciated.

Hey All,

I've been a member for over a year or so, but never post--just read and learn what I can from others' experience. I am about to order a jig pole--either the Ozark 10' or the Sam Heaton SS...
