Biggest Crappie of the Year + Rare Catch! - Bank Fishing For Crappie
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ก.ย. 2024
- Today we are bank fishing for crappie and I catch the biggest crappie of the year, plus a rare black nose crappie. After striking out with a crankbait, I decide to switch to live minnows under a float, and I am glad I do! I catch my biggest crappie of the year at 13 inches! I also catch an 11 incher as well as a rare catch, the black nose or magnolia crappie. I also get a few decent bluegill as well. Fall is a great time to fish with a minnow under a float, especially from the bank. You just might catch your biggest crappie of the year!

As I've said before the best words in fishing are, "NICE FISH!" And aren't they all? 🦈🎣👵😉
If it makes my pole bend, it's a nice fish😉
If it got away, it isnt very nice
Alex, even though this video is 9 months old I thought I'd watch it again. Went pan fishing the other day for bluegill and found a school of Crappy...not as big as the ones you caught but very fun to catch. # 8 hook and Gulp 1 inch minnows on a float rig. Its crazy how I fished on one side of the bank and caught nothing then moved 30 yards on the right side and was catching one after another. I think you mentioned in a video how the fish tend to school up in the fall. Super fun day. Thanks again for all your videos...Iv learned so much!
Years ago, I was a helicopter mechanic on the offshore oil rigs. When the supply boats came, they always fished around the rig. Their tackle consisted of a fishing line and a spoon. They would twirl it round and round over their heads and toss it close to the rig. The Vietnamese that came out to fish often fished the same way. Now, that's minimum tackle! LOL
I like the "still got the minnow" minigame !
Yes I do too it's fun
Helps save bait 😀
Lost my mom/bestfriend a few months ago unfortunately and your videos really helps during this difficult time she loved fish especially crappie and bluegill
I am glad they can help.
always enjoy your videos, out of all I used to watch and subscribe, your channel is the only one to survive. No arrogance, no presented by(insert lame companies names here), just great fishing, the way we like it!!!! my hats off to you Alex!!! Keep it Real!!
Thanks Wayne, I am proud to keep it realistic 👍👍
And that my friends is a great fishing day! You are on it!
The word SLAB has never seen such a definition! 😱
You: How many fish can I get in this minnow?
Minnow: Damn it! I wish some fish would eat me so this nightmare will end!
😅 It was dead after the first fish
@@RealisticFishing Heart attack, no doubt. 😂
the everlasting minnow was killer
😂 dead minnow = huge crappie
Very nice love the videos. I like how you have a boat but still show a lot of bank fishing skills. Thanks for the videos. Hope you continue to feel better.
Bank fishing is my specialty 😀
the weather looks beautiful
Chilly but beautiful 👍
I get Bass Sized Crappie like that almost every year at my family's farm.
crappie farm
One tough minnow! Congrats on the big croppie, they're good eats too 😀🐠🐟🐠🐟
Yes, crappie is very good 👍
‘ One of these days you’re going to go down there and I’m gonna be sitting on that login eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich 😂😂... Nice fish buddy :)
Hopefully I wont get snagged on your shirt
Sorry I'm late, was cooking bear kebobs yesterday lol. Incredible outing homie. Those were some nice crappie. And a tough minnow lol. Freakin awesome vid brother, glad you're feeling better and able to do some fishing.
Real enjoyable fighting fish, the Big Crappie very nice catch, that crappie had the old paper mouth on him, very nice, well done, Thank You
big ole paper mouth 👍
Nice fish! Thanks for sharing and explaining your tackle and technique. I can't wait to try.
Water is back up in that spot. Nice fish Alex 🎣
Yep, the dam must be closed
Nice black nose crappie! I miss catching crappie when I used to spend summers in Georgia.
No crappie where you live?
@@RealisticFishing pretty rare to catch a crappie in the Tampa Bay Area. Only place I’ve seen them around here is Lake Tarpon, and that was when I was a kid.
The “Everlasting Minnow”... find it at your local bait & tackle. Kick ass crappie! 13”
Great job. Keep grinding!
Fish after fish 😀
Nice! Love the crappie action, along with the mondo crappie! As always, keep it realistic!
Thanks for sharing and showing us you do try baits that dont work on a certain day or time of the year. Loved watching you catch those beautiful Crappie they are fun to catch on light tackle. Glad to see your back is healing just take it easy and don't do to much to soon. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
Thanks! Happy to be out there while I get better
Hope you're healing well, nice sunny day there, nice catches! That is a stud of a crappie.
Felling better every day 👍
Out here slaying crappies. Good job great fishing.
Thanks!
That's one for the stringer. I don't know if you've ever at them before but crappie are some of the best fish you can eat. That one was definitely big enough for a meal.
Wait!!!!! you not the fishing GOD?!?!! Lol lol ... I’m 😢... I learn a ton from you !keep it going!!!!!
😉 No, I am just some guy who like to fish
@@RealisticFishing your truly awesome and I learn so much from watching. Being primarily a bank fisherman and watch you do fish helps me out. This winter I packed it in, since panfish go deeper during winter, I don’t stand a chance coz where I fish is only 3-4 feet from the bank.
Congratulations, Alex. You've just added to your rep! You are well known for your ability to find deals on gear and tackle. Now you can add Minnow Miser to your lore. Four fish on one minnow! 👍👊👏👏
Now thats how you fish one minnow 👍👍
More killer crappies 👍👍👍. Your squeezing the last few drops out of the late fall fishing for sure! Thanks...that was fun!
Hopefully I can squeeze out a few more 😅
Nice live minnow fishing! Thumbs up!
👍 Thanks!
You can walk into the live bait store for minnows and when the employee asks how many, you can reply 2 please. Nice catch.
😀 2 dozen just to be safe
Those live minnows keep catching the crappies attention.
Nice fishing 👏
They love em!
Great catch! I'm glad to see your success. Keep the videos coming please.
Thanks!
I'm really sorry you needed back surgery and that it interferes with your fishing. However, it may give you some sympathy for us old duffers who have a hard time setting the hook. I have to use an old Mister Twister 5/0 thin gauge wire hook. I just can't set the hook hard enough to use the new wide gap hooks. 🤷♀️👵🎣🚣♀️ P.S. Love your videos they are so REALISTIC! They just couldn't be better. Thank you so much!
Its empathy now... I am getting old
Now that’s a fish!!!!!
Now that's a slab!
Oh yeah!
Those vultures must have been mad you are catch and release 🤣
I think they are cool with it, they dont like fresh foods 😉
Nice Crappie catch bro 🤜💥🤛 keep keeping it Realistic
Thanks! 👊
Congrats on 50,000 and keeping it real. FEAR THE BEARD.
50,000 was so 25,000 ago
Awesome crappies those bluegill are sure pretty too.
I agree, great fish
What an amazing day of fishing 🎣!! KIR!! Excellent video.
Thanks!
Good video, multiple fish on the minnow, and what a slab! Just a suggestion: when you are fishing that deep, a slip bobber and stopper are easier to cast and fish
You crushed it man! That was nice to watch out of that spot, it has snagged and robbed you too many times!
Glad to see you got on to some crappies. Beautiful fish that 13” was a nice slab. Thanks for sharing I hope your healing is continuing to go well. Keep it realistic!! #realisticrig
Hey man! Hope you had a good Thanksgiving! As always, Appreciate your videos! You're always out there keeping it realistic!
Thanks Rush, I hope yours was good as well
Man you definitely made a comeback from those bluegill at 10:50 that was an awesome crappie and then it got better and better after that👍
I love getting surprised by bigger fish 👍
Super nice collection of fish!
Oh yeah!
Heck yeah Alex. Nice fatty ole crappie. Good fishing man. Tight lines
Thanks!
Awesome crappie fishing! I've only gotten a handful of crappie in my life over 13 inches in length. Anything over 12 I consider a nice fish!
Wow.....you got your money’s worth out of that minnow!! That was a jumbo crappie!!
My favorite minnow ever 😀
Those were Nice Crappie 💪💪💪 I took home 3 that size yesterday. All 3 were a little over a pound!
Well done 👍
Nice crappie ! The reliable old minnow never fells
Sometimes it fails 😉
@11:00, NICE SLAB!! 🎣👍
👍👍
Hey Alex... you're on fire today buddy!!! Very Nice Fishing 🎣!!
Hell Yeaaaah!!! KIR
😎👍😎
Nice crappie! Always a great day when fishing, even better when you land tanks like that!
Thats right!
Nothing like some nice crappies to make any pain go away
for a few minutes anyway 👍
Nice slab! Love this time of year for fishing.
Me too, great panfishing!
nice Crappie.. 13 inches... super nice.... I like the Black nose one. Never saw one of those. Fish on!
Crappie mohawk!
What a nice slab! Cool how he swam under the log on the release. Hoping to catch some tomorrow on Lake Okeechobee. 🤞🏻
Good luck!
@@RealisticFishing Thanks. We had some pretty good luck today. Caught 27. Got 17 keepers outta that. Good eating tonight!
Very nice crappie. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks for watching Jerry
Thats a fun day!! ..Great content Alex..Glad your healing up and out there fishing! They should let you name all the local ponds... Skelator Lake, Vulture Heaven..LOL
I love naming parks
You had a great day fishing that's Nice
Nice is right 👍
Slab nice!! Thanks for videos.
Thanks for watching fellow Alex
thx for all the awesome videos hope you catch a bigger crappie next time
Oh man, that would be crazy
Crappie can't resist you buddy! 🤯
What a SLAB!!! Makes me want to go get some minnows & try my luck @ some crappie 🤘🏼
Good luck!
Thanks Alex..no crappie, but managed to catch a war-mouth & a catfish
That minnow man. Stayed on for 3 times and was a lucky minnow. Caught u ur biggest crappie of the year. Good job
Amazing results from one minnow 👍
@@RealisticFishing agreed
Real nice fish ! Nice work out there brother! Could only manage 2 bluegills today, whiffed on the crappie.
hopefully next time 👍
What a slab! Go Alex 🎣
I can't stand long periods without falling because of my Parkinson's (balance issues) so my brother sets up a folding chair for me on a level surface and I just fish away... Might work for you too, bring a chair to fish from until your back heals completely...
If I start sitting, I might want to continue sitting, So I think I will tough it out as long as I can 👍
Nice video Alex they will be biting soon here. Crappie for poppy!
Go get em poppie!
I don't know exactly when you were fishing but it looks like it did here yesterday. An absolutely gorgeous day to be fishing and one of my fishing partners found the school of crappie and had very good luck there. The other two of us searched the pond for bass and we caught a few small bass and some a bit larger. The pond was so beautiful it would have been a good day had we caught nothing.
Day before yesterday 👍
Niiiiiiiiiice move bro on those sweet crappie...some really nice fish...i really thought you would get something on that lipless but oh well...those bluegill and crappie were the ticket..great video..had a blast..keep it realistic
The big fish are out in the mail lake looking for stable temperatures. They will come back sometime though
Nice crappie Alex! That would have been dinner!
Would have been enough for sure 😀
Nice crappie! I like using slip bobbers with minnows
Great-looking crappie!
👍👍
That IS a big crappie!!! 👏
Good job buddy! KIR
😎👍😎
Great video Alex. Nice crappie they look good.
Glad your back is getting better
Thanks Mike
This log is your spot, that's realistic crappy's!! Wish we had her in germany, but should not be! But we catch here more frequently sun bass, no idea from where the are. Keep it up Alex!
Sun bass, I will google that one
Nice fish!
Wow Alex! Loved the video! That was a nice crappie! Good fight on them!
I agree, good fight 💪
Congrats on the crappie! I'm only catching under 10in crappie lately... It seems like the slabs prefer the live minnow over the crappie jig. But I do catch occasional slabs on the jig...
Way to stick it out. Love it
Moved and started catching em! So worth it
A couple of nice crappie there Alex! Way to go man! Shoot Yeah!!!
Awesome video Alex
Thanks Darren
Great video!!! That one crappie was a tank. The weather conditions looked nice and calm. Love your channel!!!
Not too windy, which was nice 👍
😁👍 O yea The Crappies are awesome! and real fun to catch!
I love catching big crappie 😀
Man that was a nice skab. Great crappie.
Great catches.
👍👍
Nice crappie! I caught my first catfish earlier unintentionally on a bobber and worm lol it was dark out and I had no idea how to handle it but luckily I was able to get the hook out after much frustration and got him back in the water!! What a rush tho, fishing is great 👍 🐠 ❤️
Surprise!
Some great looking fish buddy
Great action! Nice crappie!
Thanks!
As always great video Alex the first bluegill you caught was camera shy lol nice crappie keep up the great work man
He said " see ya"
Yeah he did
That minnow was a badass🤣
trooper!
Alex this was an awesome video. I love fishing for crappie. I’ve caught several black nose but my favorite are my two citation crappie one was 18” and 2.7 lbs the other was 17” and 2.3 lbs. They are fun to catch. I was wondering in future videos if you could include more of your rigging.
As I said in the video. The rigging doesn't really matter
What were the temps like out there? Up here in Ohio, it's been about 40 degrees on sunny days. Little too cold for my blood.
I think this water is in the low 50s
A few more of those be good eatin
Crappie-zilla! Nice catch
Oh yeah!
Great video friend
Thanks friend
You should try a tens unit pulse massager for your back dude those things work wonders
I should huh? Does it work for a huge hole?
