The stuff I'm referring to is the liquid in a bottle. Crappie nibbles seem to work to keep em on the hook longer, but the liquid..not sure if it works.

I know that crappie are sight feeders, so that #1. Can anyone say this stuff help with short-striking fish or that it actually works at all?

I have no problems finding the shad...they're everywhere, including big gizzard shad.

Clouds of em on sonar.

It's hard to differentiate the shad from crappie on sonar though.

Thanks for...

Thank you sir!!!!!

Piles and piles of gizzard shad...millions of them...on sonar between 5-10 feet deep.

Fished for 3.5 hours, not a single nibble.

Was thinking about hitting whiskey bay tomorrow. Only one...

My dad is also 80, but can't walk too well. I'm glad for you both that you were able to share that fishing trip!

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I'm using the 4lb mr crappie camo line. I'm reticent to use a split shot, as they're plainly more visible to the fish, and my thinking is that if they're...

It's a tad bit thicker per lb/test.

The smallest slip bobber I could find are the small thill pro series slip floats. Problem is...with a 1/32 or 1/48 jughead, I still have to add a split shot to the line above the jig in order to...

It's called "water intoxication".

Basically, if you drink enough water (has to be a LOT), it dilutes the electrolytes in your bloodstream enough that your heart muscle can no longer repolarize.

I'm just very glad that it's not discontinued, because every time I find something that I really like, it inevitably gets canceled or something.

Good to know. No place here sells it, so I have to order it.

I just compared it with 4lb McCoy's and the Mr crappie was the hands down winner, so I ordered big spools of it in 4,6, and 8 lb.

I'm in the medical field...so I read clinical studies all the time.

The latest, linked to the concentration of pollutants in commonly consumed seafood, specifically fish, suggests there is a very...

I see the camo mono line still listed on their site, but everywhere I've tried to order it says it's either out of stock, limited quantities, or that it's on clearance.

I only managed to catch two sacalait, but they were big ones. Both males, about 8 feet off the bank in about a foot of water. Used the smallest red/white plastic bobber I could find....jig was 5...

I wonder who is responsible...that's gross.

Fish kills in that area are usually towards the end of summer.

I've used P-Line CX in 12, 8, and 6lb. The 12 can get a tad wirey, but the 6lb is magic on a small ultralight spinning reel.

I got the 4lb/test, so I'm sure it'll be fairly limp line....how's the knot strength?

I have some McCoy or order because of things I've read about it. I've had limited experience with Mr. Crappie, and I've used the BPS CrappieMax line a few times.

The CrappieMax is actually really...

7.97 and rising. Crest at 12.5 on the 17th, then a slooooooow fall after that.

Still at just over 11 feet on the 23rd.

The atchafalaya at BLR is rising...at lake pelba is falling.

I'm hoping to get it nailed down before next month. I'm adept at bass and bream fishing, but strictly going after sacalait is new to me.

I know everyone uses LiveScope to limit out all the time,...

Okay..so I graduated from terrible to "still bad" lol

I fished for 3hrs for that one fish. I see people pulling em no matter the conditions...I just can't seem to figure em out

Oh, forgot to mention:. When I cleaned it, it had been eating a bunch of leeches. They were about 2.5 inches long.

Guess the muddy water meant they can't be too picky.

Got to the launch about 10AM. Fished between the i-10 pilings, not far from the launch.

Caught one black crappie...about 12-13 inches.

Slip bobber rig, 5 feet deep, black head, sparkle...

It's bc of the brass additions. It balances pretty well with a light spinner though.

It's not as light as my higher end bass combos, but it costs 3* less too.

I posted a whole reply that got deleted lol ..I'll repost in the AM.

Updated review.

I got the 5'6" ultralight version. $130 100% 36Ton modulus graphite.

It's a bit stiffer than most ultralights...so I'm gonna call it ultralight and a half.

In my first...
