    Another brilliantly produced video brother! Your use of the Panfish Magnet kit to target fish was perfectly executed! Combined with your ultralight setup it is a panfish slaying unit! Great catches, those Bluegill and Crappie had beautiful colors to them! Yes sir!!! Those Crappie couldn't get enough of those baits! That was so much fun to watch Chris! Those Red Breasted Sunfish are excellent fighters for their size! Thanks for sharing!

    Great topic for a panfish fishing video. Excellent job of explaining and demonstrating by starting out with a Slab Bluegill at 3:50. That was a very beautiful Crappie at 5:11. That was a great-looking spot by that fallen tree! I really enjoyed going along on the Crappie excursion with you. Thanks Chris!

Hard to switch over, when the fish keep biting them. Are the itty bitty good for bluegill? I know folks like them for crappie.

      @pistolcreek  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Thank you! I just tie the panfish magnet directly to my main line using a Palomar knot. Thin diameter line is key to getting good casting distance. Something in either 2 or 4lb is great. I have been using the Trout SOS line lately and really like it. You can get over 300 yards for under $6. Great for panfishing.
