Thanks guys, my daughter's car broke down so we left at 10:00 with 21 keepers. The crappie did like the red/black jigs today. I'm gonna tie some more of those.

Question for you.....are those the rods in the pic you are using for the crappie? I never go out on a boat and am looking for a new rod to whip out these lite jigs, those seem kind of heavy.

Yea those are the rods we're using. Those are 12' all fiberglass with sensitive tips. We keep them in rod holders and have the rod tips about a foot above the water. With eight poles fanned out in front of us, it looks like a big spider, hence the term "spider rigging". I have lots of underwater stumps marked on my GPS/fishfinder and I just move along at around .2 mph from stump to stump. I use either a 1/16 or 1/8 oz jig with a 3/8 oz egg sinker about 18 inches up the line.

Great report and catch Scott and Steve. It's good to see those fish caught on your jigs you posted last night. Congrats on the morning on the lake

Great Job there Mr. Scott!!! Beautiful fish!!!!!

 

[ScottV]

The best part of tying jigs is field testing them. Lol

 

[Jig Man]

Eating the catch isn't bad either....

Thanks Adam, my daughter's 2009 Camry needed an alternator. $200.60. Guess who got to pay for it? I guess that's what daddys are for.
