    Been using the crappie magnet for several years now, I always keep Mermaid, salt and pepper, black and chartreuse, red and chartreuse, and a few others when they get picky on Bobby Garlands I switch to crappie magnet and back and forth. Loving the crappie videos, thanks again.

    Man I came across your channel a few weeks ago and have enjoyed all the videos you have put up. I live up in North West Ga and mainly bass fish but after watching all these crappie videos i had to go catch a mess of them at Chickamauga today. I’m subscribed to a lot of fishing channels but I’ll have to say this one is my favorite I look forward to more videos.

    • @BrandonLesterFishing

    I tend to use Powerbait Crappie nibbles but to keep more in my jar and catch more fish using the same piece, simply pour out the entire jar onto an aluminum pie pan and either place outside to air dry or I prefer placing on top of my refrigerator since it puts off heat above. When they are hard to the touch (not bricks) then you'll have a nibble that'll stay on hook longer and thus catch more fish and keep you out the store purchasing more as often.

    I’m blessed to be the Director of Pro Staff and Advertising for Crappie Magnet so I’m a bit biased but Crappie Magnets truly are remarkable baits. My dad and I have been blessed to have some success on the Crappie USA tournament trail over the years and we use CM baits exclusively. They produce all over the country in a variety of conditions. And we ALWAYS tip them with Slab Bites. They can’t hurt! Best of luck to you on the Elite Series. I keep track of all the tourneys and pull for you and Jason Christie all the time! Great review on the products too.

    We have used them many times on a drop shot rig. Just downsize your hook to a #4 circle or #6 aberdeen and the crappie magnets work great. Especially once you find that sweet spot depth this puts it right in the zone every time. Surprisingly we also caught perch, bream and bass with this method/bait.

Put the nibbles, between were the tail spits , stay on longer and put a little super glue on the hook then put on the crappie magnet. FYI.

Fishing pressure forces us to become better anglers. Thanks for watching!
