There's a lot of people that talk about specialty baits... I catch most of my crappie with this bait. Now some people say you would catch more if you would use other baits, I have others and I still end up catching more with this .99 Big Bite bait. Ask Pat:-)

Every fisherman ends up with their own personal "go to" color/style bait. It appears you have found yours.

Can't argue with the Professor ! He's the one holding the degree... Sounds to me to be that confidence bait

What jighead do you match with it? A little under 1/8 or 1/6 ounce. Always unpainted...

Was in maud two springs ago and the bait shop there had a huge selection of Big Bites. Bought one of those large bags of their orange/chartruese and those tawakoni crappie ate every last one of em...
Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

Ask Pat:-) Aw Awwwagh Professor now why did you have to put me in the middle of a jig thing. Is it a Special Jig LOL? JK I have seen you catch plenty fish with this set up at several local lakes. For you Professor this is your Special Jig last week when it was 104 that evening you flat wore the fish out, and you can't beat the 99 cents price either.

Dude..what is it that jig head is sitting on?? Boat carpet? Idk bout yallbut its so close up, my eyes went crazy looking at it. Weird...anyway..
My favorite bait for a long time till last year or so was an old creme jig. Just couldn't find em anywhere anymore. Also Fin-S shade were a huge go to for me before everyone started making shad imitation jigs. Came in several sizes, the 1.25 in was a KILLER everywhere. Probably still is but all these bigger bait companies took the market I guess
