Brandon little tip for everyone . If your slip float fishing and you are fishing in lots of brush or stake beds or anywhere where you are or will be getting hung . Pull that split shot down to where it's 1/2 inch to inch above hook and you will be able to easily get out by jiggling your split in the correct or opposite way . Long as you haven't buried the hook that is . Soon as you feel that brush or whatever it may be give a little jiggle and most times come right over or through with assistants from split shot . Old Timer here on Ky. Lake showed me and I promise ya it save ya more times than not .
Brandon I really enjoy your videos I like the way you simplify things like showing the fish finder , how you tie or use jigs. I'm glad you show a lot of crappie fishing, I'm not into bass fishing. Every video is an opportunity to learn something. Thanks for sharing brother.
Man them was some very nice slabs. Good job letting them go. They'll spawn some good offspring to eat in future. Thanks for taking us along and Merry Christmas.
Aprreicate the details on setting up your slip bobber for live bait. Please show more forward sonar views with your rig on display and crappies. Thanks. Merry Christmas
I really like the way you present things it's very simple, logical and easy to understand. The production value in your videos is very high as well which leads to a very entertaining video. Thanks a lot and Merry Christmas to you and yours. 😁👌
Nice crappie. Never fished up there for crappie. When I was young we night fished Normandy, Woods, Center Hill, Percy Priest and others for smallmouth. Nothing like a smallmouth tail walking under a black light. Love your videos and looking forward to the next one. Merry Christmas!
I love night fishing. One of the most peaceful things a person can ever do! I don't do it as much as I use to but I still love it. Thanks for watching!
Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend! Love the videos, the Phoenix of course and the down home vibe. Be nice if my home lake wasn’t so bad of a fishery . As I often say OHL still sux.
Easy to see what fish you will be chasing in retirement lol . God Bless & Best of Luck next season !! No better way to start than a Blue Trophy at St. Johns River Ole Tn. River man .
Just posted a 2 part series with all my electronics settings. Check out part 1 for side and down scan settings. Should be two videos back from this video. Thanks for watching!
Great video. Always enjoy learning from you. Thank you for your willingness to teach others. Growing up my dad didn’t take me, but glad people like you willing to teach people like me who are trying to learn. God Bless Merry Christmas.
Brandon, I like your videos ! Something confuse me here is the depth. Someone says the bait should go deep like 10 Ft , 20 Ft or around in Winter, but your 1 ft depth work great. So, where is the right depth for crappie to suspend around?
I really enjoyed your video and I hope you do not mind my questions. What state are you in? What time of day was it? Are you using any particular type of gloves ? Are these fish near structure or suspended in open water?
I don’t mind at all. I’m in Tennessee. It was a pretty cool day 45 degrees or so, cloudy and no wind. The gloves are made by HUK. Most of these fish were suspended over rock except for the fish on the bridge which were obviously relating to the bridge column. Thanks for watching!
Having a conversation with my Grandpa about finding crappie on Center Hill. Have you ever fished it and if so what do you look for on such a deep lake? 🤔
Hello ! What the name and size of that spinning reel and what size and the name of that slip floats you are used in this TH-cam video please. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
Dang you beat my PB by .01 lbs...Guess ill have to find a bigger one! Your crappie videos are great, I think I have seen most of them now. Good luck with the channel and all your endeavors!
Crappie fishing on Normandy has been pretty good .I fish from the bank.Last 2 weeks I have been catching using jigs.I will try the live bait to see if I can get some of those 15 inchers.
If the fish were shallow, say 4 feet or less, then I would use a stationary float. Any deeper than that and it gets hard to cast so the slip bobber is better. Thanks for watching!

My favorite way to crappie fish bar none
Edit: exactly how I rig my line for minnow. Watching that bobber move gives so much satisfaction
Iv fished days with my wife when she knocked a limit down with minnows in no time where I didn’t get a fish with jigs!!! And vise versus!

Hey Brandon, Awesome to see a video on our home Lake. We are on one of the hills near Barton Springs. Do you ever guide locally?
Awesome video… I would love to see a video of your 2D, side imaging, and down scan settings… Trying to learn all the settings. Thanks
Just posted a 2 part series with all my electronics settings. Check out part 1 for side and down scan settings. Should be two videos back from this video. Thanks for watching!
@@BrandonLesterFishing Awesome.. I’ll check those. Really enjoy your channel
Enjoyed the video! What rod and reel are you using?
God bless
God Bless you too! Thanks for watching!
I wish I could throw fish back but I seem to eat them as fast as I catch them! But I’m so busy that I rarely get to go.
Nothing wrong with keeping a few to eat. They are tasty! Thanks for watching.
When is the best time to shot docks and can summer time Productive? Rick from SC.
That's some really good info and fun watching. Would you mind sharing where you purchase your live bait in that area? Thanks and Happy New Year!!
There is a little store right beside Barton Springs boat ramp that sells live bait. That's where I get mine. Thanks for watching and Happy New Year!
Great video. Always enjoy learning from you. Thank you for your willingness to teach others. Growing up my dad didn’t take me, but glad people like you willing to teach people like me who are trying to learn. God Bless Merry Christmas.
Teaching people about fishing is why I'm putting effort into growing this channel. Glad you are learning! Thanks for watching!
What brand of reel and pole are u using? Great video👍
What brand is pole are using ?
Brandon, I like your videos ! Something confuse me here is the depth. Someone says the bait should go deep like 10 Ft , 20 Ft or around in Winter, but your 1 ft depth work great. So, where is the right depth for crappie to suspend around?
I have my depth set at about 6-10 ft for most of the video. It all depends on where you are fishing and how deep the crappie are. Thanks for watching!
@@BrandonLesterFishing Very helpful information. Thank you very much !
I just started crappie fishing. I guess my first biggest issue is finding crappie right now
Go back and check out my last two videos. They were made strictly to help you find crappie fast. Hope they help you. Thanks for watching!
You need to come fish Norris with me!
I'll keep you in mind if I get up that way. Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed your video and I hope you do not mind my questions. What state are you in? What time of day was it? Are you using any particular type of gloves ? Are these fish near structure or suspended in open water?

@@BrandonLesterFishing Thanks
It would take our enjoyment to the next level if we could see an occasional bobber going under.
Why not use a bobber stop?
The piece of mono is a lot easier to cast through the guides.
Having a conversation with my Grandpa about finding crappie on Center Hill. Have you ever fished it and if so what do you look for on such a deep lake? 🤔
Go back and watch my last two videos about finding crappie on a new lake. They should help you a lot. Thanks for watching!
Stop throwing them Crappie back😂🦾
What line was you using?
Merry Christmas to you, and yours. 🎣🤙🏻
Merry Christmas! Thanks for watching!
Hello ! What the name and size of that spinning reel and what size and the name of that slip floats you are used in this TH-cam video please. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
Great Video! Could you tell the length & type of Blue Crappie rod you used in this Video?
Awesome video
What kind of fishing pole are you using.
Do you eat fish, cause some of those were keepers.
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience. Would like to see how you clean your crappie and prepare for freezing. Thanks again
Will try to do a video on this! Thanks for watching!
good times
Ya We Fishing
Dang you beat my PB by .01 lbs...Guess ill have to find a bigger one! Your crappie videos are great, I think I have seen most of them now. Good luck with the channel and all your endeavors!
I love your laid back way of Fishing. I subscribed and liked. I've had my channel for about 5 months. Cool video. Thanks for sharing
Hey stop showing people how to catch my crappie!!😉
Whew! You did show too much 😆
Good video, happy new year.
Happy new year to you as well! Thanks for watching.
Crappie fishing on Normandy has been pretty good .I fish from the bank.Last 2 weeks I have been catching using jigs.I will try the live bait to see if I can get some of those 15 inchers.
Hope it works for you. Thanks for watching!
Good job sir. A lost art slipcork fishing is... You always take time to share and explain techniques and then demonstrate them. Thanks again sir.
Thank you for watching!
Been watching your vids for about a week now. Really enjoy the content you provide. Great vids bud!
Thank you!
Do you ever use a stationary float while jig fishing for crappie? Great video! Thanks.
If the fish were shallow, say 4 feet or less, then I would use a stationary float. Any deeper than that and it gets hard to cast so the slip bobber is better. Thanks for watching!
Just came across your channel now it's my favorite
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!
Great video, Merry Christmas!
Thanks!
Great video! That’s something I don’t do is live bait fish. Don’t know why, keep telling myself that I am but don’t ever do it. Lol.
Its a fun change of pace, and a great way to get a beginner started! Thanks for watching!
Merry Christmas Brandon. another awesome crappie video brother.that is some big ole crappie.
Thanks for watching!
