Been doing this with grandpa for years. Works all open water season
One thing to consider is conservation and selective harvest. Let the big ones go to keep the fisheries healthy.
Great stuff!
Workers for shallow lake walleye as well!
Can you post the link for the crappie king jigs? Please
Links are in the description! Can also be found at your local retailer depending on you region!
What rod/reel/line setup?
Best bet is to use a light power rod with a medium fast action, a 2000 or 3000 sized reel. Line is users choice. We like using a super braid like Fins Windtamer or Crappie series in a 8lb breaking strength or the sunline xplasma in the same breaking strength tied to a #28 power swivel then either a flouro or Mono leader about 3 to 4 ft long depending on your bait and the fish you are targeting.
Bottom or suspended?
Both! just adjust your weight depending on depth the fish are, but like Joel said 1/16th is a great place to start.
Been doing what we call the bump and run for years. I have 11 pitch prop I put engine ingear bring up to idle then put gear into neutral glide . This allows the fish to chose the depth and speed they want.
