I am new to crappie fishing and this forum. After investing $6000 converting my bay boat to crappie boat, the only thing changed is that now I can watch the fish swim away from my jig or minnow now. I have a few dumb questions. Is it worthwhile using a flurocarbon leader attached to braided line? What tricks do you use when you can see the fish swim up to the bait then swim away? I have a few spots I found in Buck Bay and can see the fish in brush, but they don't hit. Any suggestions?
