A hair jig tipped with spikes is always good

[PERCH INC.]

Seems like thay like white jigs- tubes-twisters-hair tipped the a piece of nite crawler.

[firstice_rules]

1-1 1/2 inch tube slow rolled or jiged works best for me

I like a small 1 1/2 inch tube jig tipped with a small sliver of crawler, fished under a slip bobber. Adjust the bobber stop until you find the depth the crappies are holding at. I have had amazing sucess on this lure.

Open water:  Just about any small jig under a float at the right depth when the water is cold, the same jig tossed on light line when the water warms.  My favorites are 1 1/2" tubes on 1/64 oz. tube in white, chartreuse, gold or silver glitter, or any combination of those colors.  Also good are 1" twister tails in pumpkinseed, chartreuse, or white on 1/64 ounce jigheads.  Power wigglers on 1/80 oz. jigheads are awesome as well.  Ice jigs tipped with maggots are also very good under a float.

The key to catching crappie is finding them and what depth that they are at.  Vertical jigging for them is effective to if you can stay over the school.

My all time favorite open water crappie lure is a 1" chartruse twister on a pink 1/16oz jig head attached to a right angle spinner like a "beetle spin".  Great for locating, great for catching.    Let me at em'!
