Old to fishing, new to crappie fever.
Thanks to Tommy Ezell over at Texas Crappie Guide, I have officially caught crappie fever.
Starting to get some tackle in order to start catching some slabs and I was wondering what everyone considered their necessities when they go crappie fishing. Not really extra gadgets but your go to stuff when the bite is turned off.

Don'ts:
worst thing a beginner does is buy a lot of colors and sizes of jigs. You don't have confidence in any of it and will waste a lot of time changing things trying to find the "magic" bait. There is no magic.
Scents sometimes help but I rarely use them and rarely get beat by someone that does. Learn to fish first then add refinments as you get better.
Do's:
Get some 1/8 oz jig heads and a couple of colors of bodies. Maybe white chartreuse and black chartreuse.
The real secret to success is to learn where and how to fish. I usually start with whatever is on my line from the last trip and use it until I lose it or ware it out. I really don't care what it is. It will catch fish if you present it right in the right place. Good example is the "Sponge Bob" story.
