If you follow these easy crappie fishing guidelines you’ll be able to increase your consistency of catching crappie.Once you learn what you need to do in different water conditions you may never go back to using live bait again. Please refer to the guidelines below these are some of the oldest crappie fishing secrets and have been handed down from father to son for years.
Guideline#1 You need to determine the water condition of the body of water you intend to fish. This simple observation will determine what kind of crappie fishing jig you will need to use.
#1.a Look into the body of water you are fishing and if you can 3-4 feet below the surface, the water is considered clear and you will want to use dark colored crappie jigs. In essence, the fish can see “too well” and you want them to focus on the movement of your crappie jig to stimulate them to bite.
#1.b if the water color is darker and you can’t see 3-4 feet below the surface use a lighter colored lure so the the crappie can see it. make sure you ad this tip to your artificial crappie baits usage list.
#1.c if the water is muddy or murky you need to use some flash on your crappie jig. Use a 1/2″ to 1″ blade , tie it above the crappie jig.
Guideline#2 I recommend you use a slip bobber, you can a good one to use is called “Mr crappie and you can purchase them at bass pro shop on-line.The slip bobber is unique because it will not come out of the water when you are jigging for crappie. this is a little used crappie fishing secret form the past.
Guideline#3 Use a “split shot” above the slip bobber to control the depth of the crappie jig. Try to work the 4-8 foot range by readjusting the “spit shot” so that the crappie fishing jig is at different depths. Do this until you find the depth that hits.
Guideline#4 “Pop” or jerk your slip bobber so it makes a 3 to 4 inch movement through the water, make sure you do this gently.
Guideline#5 If You are not catching any fish between 4 to 8ft you will need to change your depth range. It the water is cold you will need to adjust your range deeper, it the water is warmer you need to adjust your range above 4ft to within a foot of the surface. A crappie fishing secret you need to keep in your crappie artificial baits arsenal is crappie will seek shallow water when the water warms, and as the water cools they go deeper.
Well, I hope the guidelines help you improve your crappie jigging success in the future, good luck and good day!
