Best Way To Catch Crappie

Many fishermen (and fisherwomen) hit the lake when the pleasure boaters are all over the place. As a general rule, it's best to fish early in the morning or night time hours.

Crappie get spooked very easily. That's why you will usually find them hanging around the boating docks or coves in the water.

When fishing at night throw a submersible light over the side of the boat. Shiner minnows are your best bet for fishing at this time.

Experienced fisherpersons catch some of the largest crappie with these techniques.

As the temperatures rise it's time to fish lower in the water.

Crappie will naturally go further down into the water column as the sun reaches those depths.

If you are new to this sport or even a "pro" there is always something new to learn. Some of the old timers may even be willing to tell you how to catch crappie on a consistent basis if you give them a chance!

Quite frankly, we all want to have 30 and 40 fish days don't we? When you know what you are doing the action is fast and furious!

Far too many people are satisfied with lackluster days when they don't have to be. That's okay if you just want to soak up the sunshine and have a few beers.

With all the wonderful knowledge out there it just makes sense to get some pointers every now and then!
