I took off the straight jig because I couldn't cast across the wind the wind far enough the crappie fish typically hold in the river channel around this part of the year so a really long cast with about 40 more yards a line arching out in the wind and as always ..... a crappie somehow managed to git on my set up KABOOM

I changed out baits back and forth trying to decide what bite was better one brim ate the crappie magic ball head spinner thing right deep I was surprised they were feeding out in the main channel with the other larger fish there has bin a large number of red shiners under the bridge for a while now not sure why but I see them almost every visit these days ?

GO GO gadget minnow I say ..... KABOOM and crawl mister Crazy angler crawler as well KABOOM
