Jpp 3/14/14
Gonna hit JPP again this morning about 9:00 AM.
We're going to try towing bobbers, long lining jigs and spider rigging all at the same time!
Should be an interesting day....
I'll post a report later today.
Probably not many pictures since everybody on this forum knows what a crappie looks like.
Even SAMBOLIE. Well, maybe not. I took him fishing last year and showed him what they are and what they look like.....but he probably done forgot.

Good luck Merv. Try to save at least 5-10 Crappie for me since I'm going out early tomorrow hoping to get a few meals worth
Making several double and triple Crappie rigs tonight. I'll rig them with different color curly tails, Crappie magnets, and other differences to find what works best. I'll have loop knots tied on the end of my rods and loop knots at the top of these Crappie rigs for easy switching similar to switching flyrod leaders for different species/water.

Good luck guys, I will be on the water tomorrow for some crappie. Do the Multiple lure rigs work for anyone?

I don't see how they couldn't. I mean we've all used Sabiki rigs for catching skippies as bait and wind up with 3+ on at once. I've used them and we'd catch more than one white bass at a time. Same idea but with Crappie Magnets and/or curly tail jigs instead of the Sabiki lures.
There is info all over the internet about making them. My idea is a hybrid of several I've seen and I'm sure it will work as long as I can find Crappie and they happen to be hungry.

I assume you will be casting them like the sabiki rig?

Not whipping them as fast as I would a Sabiki rig. Cast, let it sink appropriately and slow retrieve back with some random twitches thrown in. Simple!

I managed to catch a few on the bison crappie magnet but got tired of the wind really quick and got out of there after just a couple of hours. Lake was 55 degrees

Went from 630-1230 this morning. Boated 32 this morning with 8 keepers. Wind literally blew us aground. That was a mess.

5mph winds tomorrow, perfect for us kayak fishermen! I hope I can find them. I'm all rigged up now and ready to go. Double rigs with 1/16oz jigheads and either white or pumpkin/chartreuse curly tails. Also my ultralight rigged with a TM jighead and a CM body for a bit more casting distance. Will size down to TM if needed.
Of course a rod with a crankbait and one with a spinnerbait just in case I'm tempted to go after a few green fish!

I fished Lamar hill today for a few hours. I managed a longest sunfish and two 5 inch bass. Wind felt like 20 mph.

That TM head with a Crappie Magnet body can make for an interesting lure. Big bluegill love that setup....keeps the little ones away. Good luck.

That's how I caught that big drum last weekend. Didn't take long to realize that wasn't a Crappie lol. I'm determined to get some slabs in the freezer this year. I'll only be fishing about 4 hours but I'll see what I can get done.

One of the reasons I read this forum is for the pics, especially of Crappie and Striper so I don't forget what they look like ...maybe I've been spending too much time going for bass but so far, not a keeper crappie nor a striper of any size.
