Two Crappie Experts Top Tips for Brush Piles
Crappie experts Dan Dannenmueller and George Toalson may live in different states, Dan - Alabama and George - Oklahoma, but both have tons of crappie-fishing experience in many places and states. The two have some similar thoughts on dissecting brush piles for crappie-catching success, but both also have several great individual tips to share to help you be more productive in doing the same. Dan talks about his strategies regarding approach, lure presentations and bait choices for each. George relies almost exclusively on a cast and reel technique that he says "paints a picture" and tells him all he needs to know about what's below. He also shares info on his equipment of choice and the 3 crappie casting baits he uses 90-percent of the time. Lots of good info here from two anglers who know plenty about crappie and how to catch them out of brush piles.

There is good reason why soft-plastic crappie baits come in so many colors - the options allow for changing to meet given conditions around light penetration, water color, sky cover and matching forage. Anglers are also learning more about the importance of bait profiles, and understanding that a profile change can also be advantageous to trigger strikes, extend success in a given spot or match...

    I received the mayfly in ice blue and crazy chicken then the swimming minniow in blue grass. The mayfly packaging is innovative and great for storing non-scented baits in with the scented mayfly. These soft plastics look promising. My only dislike about all received is that they were " Made in Guatamala."

    I understand the profile of the horizontal bait design in skipping. However, the horizontal color scheme is plain counterintuitive (flat stupid). It's easy to design an injection mold that will fix this...but yet they continue to produce this stuff?

    • @cerebraltackle
      @cerebraltackle 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@scarecrow6741 you're right, they don't weigh much at all! It all depends on the line and rod choice. The goal it to make the jig the overweighted component. Like when I'm using a true drop shot rig for crappie, I'm using a 3/8 oz weight with 6lb line and a soft, parabolic bend med rod. This way it maintains bottom contact unless you make it do otherwise. With a match float and a 32nd weight, cut down to 4lb line, preferably fluorocarbon. That will allow for further casting distance and have max sensitivity. If a fish passes gas in the vicinity of your jig, you'll know it. With that said, I'd love to hear about your modification. I'm always eager to learn being that fishing is a learning spot and no one can ever know everything there is to know.

      I respectfully disagree. Light penetration, water clarity...they all play a role in making the bait easier to locate. I once thought the way you did...then I learned differently. He is absolutely correct that changing up the color after the bite has slowed can get them biting again. I've seen it happen too many times with too many species!
