BassBuster22 Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I was visiting my Grand parents in Conroe last weekend and got to go fishing on Lake Conroe. It was raining lightly and I was fishing the bank with a lot of reeds, in about 2-3 feet of water. I was using a Heddon Spittin Image (Top water) and a 11 in. 14 oz. Crappie hit it!!! I didn't know Crappie would bite Topwaters. Just thought i'd share that. Quote
BD Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 crappie will bite alot of things. they are coming shallow this time of the year. yes I have had that happen. Quote
Gotta Love It Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I caught one the same size on a baby castaic sunfish last weekend... Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted October 31, 2006 Super User Posted October 31, 2006 I think they will hit just about anything a bass will. Quote
Guest avid Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 there is a spot on my home lake where I have just as much chance of getting hit by a nice crappie as I do a bass on a 1/2 oz. rattletrap Quote
Shad_Master Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Fishing a tournament this year I was throwing a crank bait along an old fence row and snagged a crappie -- on my next cast I had one bite the CB that was approximately 1/4" shorter than the lure (LOL). Quote
Okeechobee_Cracker Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I had something similar happen.....I was fishing a 6' senko at 2 am for bass and caught my biggest crappie ever 2lbs Quote
KS_Bassin Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I've caught some nice crappies with crankbaits fishing deep water structure during the summer months. Caught some of my best bass and crappie that way preferrably a light brown/ orange crawdad color. Quote
fishbear Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I caught a 1- 1 1/2 lb. bluegill on a Popper, during the last tournament I was in,,, only fish I caught all day, and bigger than my buddies bass.... : :. Quote
CK14 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 i've heard of them hitting floating rapalas and buzzbaits. Quote
Super User Catt Posted November 1, 2006 Super User Posted November 1, 2006 I've caught big crappie on ½ oz rat-l-traps and spinner baits ;D Quote
basspro48 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Last winter my buddy and me were fishing suspending Super Rogues along steep banks and we must have caught 20 or so crappie. Then another time we were trolling small roadrunners on little UL rigs for crappie and we doubled up with bass, a 4lber. and a 2lber. Quote
mud Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 At my local pond, I've caught crappy on 5" Senkos, Rapalas, and a Chatter Bait Quote
Guest the_muddy_man Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Ive caught Crappies on a #7 Floating Rapala twitchin them on the surface looking for a bass hit already Quote
