Glad you enjoyed it! Did you enjoy this unscripted version vs. one that's narrated? I'm putting my own voice to this for next week. Hate the way I sound! Honestly, I prefer watching videos clean and without subtitles. Relaxing to watch, and I start to notice little things that make fish of all species hit.
@@thefish-eyeview7733 Well tbh I like the narrated a little better because you point out things someone like I (going from just fishing to targeting types of fish) or someone completely new to fishing may not notice.
Crappie are my first love and I absolutely love this collection of footage. My first real successful and memorable fishing experience was on a dock on Georgian Bay in May with several 16" crappies hitting the planks as I suspended live minnows on an ultralight. Then, the bite shut down in an instant. What was I doing wrong? I hadn't changed anything. A couple of minutes passed... WHAM! A northern pike savaged my minnow, and he broke me off in an instant. Okay crappies, I understand now.
Talk about speed! Never ceases to amaze me. Crappie got away with a few missing scales. Thanks for watching and commenting - really helps this channel! Rick
Love crappie. They are great fishing, great eating, and definitely the one fish that almost never has a single parasite in the meat (Black spot/yellow grub). Almost all the bluegill and perch I catch- regardless of the location- have some sort of parasites
Where I fish there's a spot hard to get to with a nice shady small berry like bearing tree and there's always ,i kid you not something breaking the water , I'm an inexperienced fisher but I caught two small crappie right there on worm an bobber on a bad set up , now I will go back after watching this with more thought put into it . Thank you very much
Enjoy! That's what fishing is all about - just as much fun with the simplest of tackle. I often overthink and overcomplicate things, which takes away from the experience. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing. Is this in the spring? The crappies are almost at the surface of the water you can even see them with your eyes. Awesome!
Your right about buying the BEST fish finder and LEARN to use it trust me people they don't lie learning what crappie look like on one of them helps a TON!!
Man oh man... another one!! I loved crappie fishing so much compared to anything!!!!!! Loved videos like this and need more of it!!! Show us more how the easiest way to catch them!!

Hey you should try some scents underwater. I use berkley crappie scent it doesnt stick much but actually works great compared to other brands. It would be cool to see them react underwater to different scent profiles
Yes you're right! When they hit a scented bait they really hold on tight and swim away with it. I use unscented baits (even wash them clean of any) to get those repeated hits on camera. Roll a bait in my hands - they hit and spit instantly - never come back for more. That's a great idea!! - 'Scent Profiles' - will do this year. God Bless you with good health and good times on the water. Rick
Good idea -already have some recorded with a wide angle lens. Still, I like to get up close and personal if they let me. Going to offer some the best 4K stuff on USB hubs. You should see these on a large screen 4K TV!! Absolutely no comparison to youtube streaming! You can literally count the annual rings on their scales to age the fish. I have long, unbroken, unscripted footage I watch to relax - like having an aquarium with my favourite game fish. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I use a improved clinch knot nearly all the time. Probably because I'm in a hurry and lazy. With fluorocarbon, which I use exclusively now, you need a really good knot to avoid 'slippage'. Man that line is slippery and unties under pressure! Improved clinch 10 times around is what I do. And I don't trim it too closely - fish don't care it there's a 1/2 inch of extra tag line. There are likely better knots out there that I'm unaware of, I admit. Thanks for watching and commenting! Rick
Awesome video,thanks for the educational material you are providing. It has made my crappie fishing really enjoyable this season. Although I will never be able to afford a livescope😁
No, I seldom use hooks during filming. That way they hit more than once and I can experiment with different baits and techniques. I also feel strongly about leaving all the fish I film behind for others to enjoy. I do like to fish and eat fish myself, but do that in other places where filming isn't really feasible. Thanks for watching and commenting! Rick
Very Interesting!
THIS IS THE BEST FOOTAGE IVE EVER SEEN. THIS MUST TAKE YOU ALOT OF TIME. I CAN TELL ITS A PASSION
Sweet video and good pointers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Jar is amazing never seen that before
Great video, and awesome underwater footage. Glad to see a little longer video this time, well done!

Great footage. That Muskie or Pike came out of nowhere and nailed that crappie 🤩 👍

Love these fabulous videos! TD.
Great video and great music and GOD bless you and your family Amen.

Yes it is. Thanks for watching!
We have a HB MEGA Live and can find lots of schools. Getting them to bite is often a problem.
Great video. I love crappie fishing almost more than anything. We appreciate the content. God Bless

Do you have a video of a crappie eating a live minnow under water on a hook?
Yes - MANY! Coming up in 'Suspended Crappies' in 2 weeks. Thanks for watching and commenting Pamela! Rick
Thanks. Love the videos.

Dedicated to K dog? Nice. Suggest try doing wide angle shots in the future as a change up

Awesome; awesome; awesome !!!!!......
What type of knot do you use on the jigs (loop, clinch)?
I use a improved clinch knot nearly all the time. Probably because I'm in a hurry and lazy. With fluorocarbon, which I use exclusively now, you need a really good knot to avoid 'slippage'. Man that line is slippery and unties under pressure! Improved clinch 10 times around is what I do. And I don't trim it too closely - fish don't care it there's a 1/2 inch of extra tag line.

Great video! I love Crappie fishing 🎣 Pink Pond Princess TH-cam Channel Stopped By To Say Hello 👋🏽😀🎣💖👸
The first fish i caught was a crappie. Now....IM the one whose hooked
Awesome video,thanks for the educational material you are providing. It has made my crappie fishing really enjoyable this season. Although I will never be able to afford a livescope😁
Do you not use hooks?
No, I seldom use hooks during filming. That way they hit more than once and I can experiment with different baits and techniques. I also feel strongly about leaving all the fish I film behind for others to enjoy. I do like to fish and eat fish myself, but do that in other places where filming isn't really feasible.

Nah,I don't headlight deer either...
If wacky worms work the best the why do I seldom see you using them after watching 12 videos ?
