somebody forgot to tell that crappie the water temp isnt 68 degrees something yet. im sure it was a fluke.
COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

That fish was a silver/white as all get out. Put those males in a bucket of water in the sun on the cement and as soon as the water warms up.....they get dark. Works every time this time of year! That way I can get good pictures of spawn colors.

ive caught them during spawn and put them in the same temp water in the livewell as whats in the lake and they darkened up. you nailed it Ketchin. ketchin what was the water temp where you found them dribbling eggs out?
