Crappie fishing with minnows is one of the most effective techniques for catching these popular panfish. Minnows are natural prey for crappie, making them an irresistible bait choice. When using minnows for crappie fishing, it\“s important to select the right size - typically 1-2 inch minnows work best. Hook the minnow through the lips or back to keep it alive and swimming naturally.
The key to successful minnow fishing for crappie is presentation. Use light tackle with 4-6 pound test line and a small hook. Slowly jig the minnow near structure where crappie typically hide, such as submerged trees, brush piles, or weed beds. Spring and fall are the best seasons for minnow fishing as crappie are more active during these periods.
Live minnows can be fished under a bobber or on a jig head. The bobber method allows you to suspend the minnow at specific depths where crappie are feeding. When using a jig head, the weight helps get the minnow down to the desired depth while providing some action. Always keep your minnows healthy and active in a well-aerated bait bucket for best results. |
