“CRAPPIE”
The crappie fishing has been very good for some time on the north end. Some days we bounce around on cubes, some days it is just stumps and brush. Depends on how much sun we have.
I pull across the cubes very slow with a white or grey hair jig 1/32oz. under a trolling sinker 1/4oz. since we are not doing hardly any pendulum fishing I opt for the heavier weight. Pushing and pulling across the cubes or stumps is deadly. The big fish are dead on the bottom so on the cubes we push over the top then drift back. Then we push into the side of the cube on bottom. That is how we are getting the bigger fish. Minnows are still working fine and most are still using them. Myself I have my customers setting right beside me and we tightline a 12ft. rod pushing and pulling jigs.

I am booked solid for 2026. My 2027 calendar is up so get your dates lined up. Several have reached out
