rookiesmallmouther Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Once again I'm busy finding ways to spend money with the help of the bait monkey's hunting season aka Indiana winter. So ya, I'm starting crappie as a side thing from bass, and catfish. I'm going to fish from shore but all i have are bass lures and all i know how to fish for a are bass and cats. Any basic things i should pick up before starting this spring? All i have right now are a rod and reel it has no line though :-[ when im out bass fishing and decide to do some crappie fishing but i forget my crappie stuff i just tie on a hook and bobber and get a clump of dirt or blades of grass and cast it out twitch it and i can land crappies all day! you can buy some small crappie jigs and bobbers for beginners and some small inline spinners, cranks, jigs and cast them out and reel them back like bass fishing (crappies will hit the lures if small enough to fit there mouths) i once had a bluegill ingulf my 8inch plastic worm when i was drop shotting for bass! just experiment and have fun! 8-) anything that sworms and wiggles on the ground can work for bait and like i said grass and dirt works for me! so basikly anything on a hook can catch crappie!
