Tip#2 Purchase some "Cajun Red 6 -12lb test line for your crappie fishing rig.(you can get away with the 6-12# test line because this crappie fishing rigged line is almost invisible to crappie in the water.
TIP#3 Get some "Missouri minnows" (use when you have the wives and kids in the boat) You don't catch as many fish but it easier for the youngsters to use.
Tip#4 Use weights up to 1/4ounce.
TIP#5 Use crappie fishing jigs.
Tip#5a use plastic crappie fishing jig parts commonly refered to as "tubes" in the color of green, yellow and white
Tip#5b Use the smallest artificial minnow jigs you can find, with black tops and silver belly. The tale should move and get a lot of action in the water.
Tip#5c Hair wrapped jig are hard to fine, but if you find one make sure you purchase it. They work great on your crappie fishing rig.
Tip#5d Use jigs with a black body and yellow tail with a yellow head and black eyes.
Tip#6 The colder the water gets the smaller the line test you should use. Also water can see better in colder water so use 4lb test line in colder water temperatures.
Tip#7 Use spring loaded floats (bobbers,corks) That can slide up and down the line so you can easily adjust your fishing depth.
Tip#8 Instead of using just one jig or hook on a line tie in 2 or three jigs about 10 inches apart. You can place a weight below the jigs, but if that doesn't work put the weight above the jigs.
