Am alone here in this? Crappie are among the fish I least like catching. I've caught monster sized crappie and even the huge ones are akin to reeling in a wet rag. Sometimes I wonder if it's weeds on my line or a crappie. It's hard to tell.

Adjust your tackle accordingly for them and they are fun. 4-6lb test on a light/med. light rod is all you need.

I guess my issue with them is because I usually catch them by accident when fishing for bass and I'm bringing them in on a MH or M rod with heavier line.

get a nice 6-7' light action stcroix and u will have a blast. MH is one rod weight I dont own, I go from ML and M right to H and XH for skis.

adam newark sinker/fairfield tackle does repairs, I think ramsey outdoor does too. fairfield tackle is a sponsor here tell em ur from the site
