Old School Crappie Fishing Family Secrets




There are just thousands of ways to rig your fishing lines for crappie and no one way works all the time. You will find 8 crappie fishing tips below that we feel will work for just about any crappie rigging situation you will face.We talk about using artificial crappie fishing jigs and using crappie fishing minnows. The best minnows to use are called "Missouri minnows".

TIP#1 Use a "spin cast" reel fishing with a light weight graphite rod with 6-12# test line. (this is a bit more then most guys use.. but it works.

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 crappie fishing jigs with the head weighing from 1/64" oz up to 1/4 ounce, but no bigger.

TIP#5 Use crappie fishing jigs.

Tip#5a Use tube jigs: green, yellow, and white

Tip#5b Find a very small crappie jig that has a small minnow attached. Make sure the top is black and the bottom is silver. Also check to make sure the tail is very flexible so the jig will get plenty 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 10inches apart. You can place a weight below the jigs, but if that doesn't work put the weight above the jigs.

Well we hope these great crappie catching rigs make your next crappie fishing trip a success! Good Luck!
