January 23, 2009, Newsletter Issue #121: Crappie Basics

Tip of the Week


Crappie basics almost always involves finesse. When the bite is tough, crappie anglers are only getting started.

Tiny, glowing jigheads tipped with a minnow seem to present an impossible temptation to crappies. These fish will spook easily so retrieve the jig slowly and deliberately. Another way to catch crappies when the bite is tough is to use a plain fathead minnow under a bobber. Let the minnow run free within limits and try to keep it out of the cover where crappies can see it.
