I'm not trying to upstage ole Cap's tarpon trip, but.....

[Big Muddy]

Just wondering what kind of set-up do you use for crappie fishing? Got an 84 acre private lake that has crappie and the owner has given me access tooo it.

Fido, look at the middle pic in my initial post, where I'm holding my jig pole under my arm, next to the trolling motor.... you can see my little 9 ft. jig pole that I use....it weighs only about 3 ozs., when it's fully loaded with 8 lb. golden Stren....some folks down here, just use an 8 or 9 ft. fly rod....I prefer light uncomplicated rods and reels.

Here's pics of my favorite jig(#8 hook) and the rod/reel combo....I buy all my crappie stuff from Slater's Jigs in Indianola, MS....been doing business with them for 35 years....good reliable folks.
