Old School Crappie Fishing Family Secrets
Has your crappie fishing lacked a good consistent catch? Are you a beginner crappie angler and confused on where to start? Well you are not alone. Many crappie fisherman struggle to get a consistent catch. Fishing for crappie is like any other sport you need to practice and you need to follow a set of guidelines and rules. I would like to give you some simple crappie catching tips, that can improve your crappie catch.
#1 Guideline When you get out on the water do not just start catching crappie. Chances are what ever you are doing to catch fish will work at other locations too. You need to establish a set pattern that you will use at all the locations you fish at throughout the day. To determine what pattern will work best you need to identify details like: Did you get your crappie hits when your crappie bait was floating downward? At what depth did the crappie strikes occur? Were the hits on the windward side of the structure you were fishing? These are just a few of the details you need to document and take a metal note of. As you get more experienced this list will grow.
#2 Guideline It is very important to be very quiet when you are targeting any species of fish and that includes the sport of crappie fishing. I can guarantee that any slab crappie will scatter if you make any noises such as moving around in the boat, dropping things to the bottom of the boat talking loudly ext. These fish are older and they are savvy. They will move if they sense anything that is unnatural to their habitat. Sound carries in water just as it does in the air. This is one of the easiest crappie fishing rules to adhere too. But you would be surprised how many rookie fisherman overlook this simple tip.
#3 Guideline How many times have you been out crappie fishing and you get hungry and reach down and pull out a handful of chips or eat a sandwich, then you go right back to handling your crappie baits? Well crappie can smell the things that you just ate and the different smell may be just enough to cause them not to bite or move off. Next time you eat out on the water wipe your hands clean then rub them with some commercial crappie scent. You will be surprised how much this tip may increase your crappie catch.
