    “The problem with these fish is that their eyes are too close to their tail”. That is comedic genius and I am going to use that forever. Outside of being a great fisherman and teacher of angling, you are hilarious. Thank you for doing what you do.

    Today I caught the biggest crappie of my life! 2+ lbs and like you, I thanked God and released him, didnt even take a picture. When God is with you fishing, that is a small one. I was using your method, using Bobby Garland jigs. I did notice all the big crappie were in the shade of the trees, no crappie in water with sunlight.

    I have a trolling motor very similar to what Richard has. A 55 lb. thrust Minnkota Traxxas. Tilt telescoping tiller handle. Variable speed which is ideal for trolling for crappie. I have mine mounted on the front right hand side of my 12 ft. Sun Fiesta pontoon boat. Plenty big enough for 2 people to fish out of and small enough to store in most garages.

  • @joegrande4848

    I've learned to pinch the line very gently with index and thumb while fishing. You'll feel the peck on the line. 😊❤ it's especially helpful when night fishing. If you use a jig night fishing or any time of day try procure attractant. It'll draw fish in to bite. Put a generous amount on plastic and color hook tip red really good. Let red sharpie on hook tip dry and add procure trophy bass to hook as well as the crayfish on bitsy jigs. 😊❤

    Those flatheads were up in the rip rap looking for anything that moves basically, it’s that time of year when they start feeding up just before they move into their wintering holes, once that water drops below 50 degrees they’ll start staking up in those deep holes. But my opinion the fall of the year is the best time to catch your biggest Flathead, my opinion, well early spring ain’t too bad neither when they come out of those wintering holes.
