I've never heard anyone say using minnows is not fishing but if there's someone out there saying that they are out of touch with reality. Live bait has been the means of catching fish long before any artificial bait came into existence. To each his own I guess.

I just love watching your crappie fishing videos been a member of your Chanel for awhile now. I’m 68 years old and I’ve prolly caught Moore crappie then you’ve ever seen but I’m here to everyone watching theses videos listen to him he knows his stuff because of experience I’ve been there. I like to use minnows in the summertime to but sometimes they would still rather have jigs. I’ve had to take and put a peace of minnow on a jig so the crappie would keep it in its mouth long enough for you to set the hook. That’s another little trick to try when they get finnikey 👍on the video and happy fishing bud

You are correct on the minnows. I went to bull shoals yesterday and only had 3 crappie. The fish was there just wouldn’t bite. Didn’t have any minnows with me. I use to never go without minnows with me. Got pretty good with jigs so I haven’t needed them. Yesterday I would of liked to had them. I’ve had days though when they wouldn’t hit minnows to.

[@joegrande4848]

This works for other species too. If its hot keep your saftey in mind find shade stay hydrated. Then use a 7 inch leader with size 1 4 6 8 or 10 baitholder hooks. Tie to main line with 2 moderate size split shots up to 5 inches from leader tied to main line. Use small baitholder hooks on leader size 8 or 10. Tie to main line use small worms catch bait fish. Use size 4 or 1 baitholder hooks tied to 7 inch leader for bigger fish. Tie bigger hook an leader to main line use 2 split shots use big fat nightcrawlers. I call this a poor mans carolina rig. I dont like carolina rigs where theres a lot of cover. I prefer 7 inch leader with a selected size baitholder tied to line with either 1/10 oz egg weight or split shot. If you use this rig with cover in water use 1/10 oz egg weight. You will catch multi species of fish. Egg weight will slide up or down line. Be sure to tie a tight sizable knot to stop egg weight. This works great in cover.

[@DeadRiverBaits]

Great video! The important thing is you use what you can use and Minnows work. I make and use soft plastics but I always have a live bait either as my primary or secondary bait because you never know what they want and crappie are a great challenge! Not sure why anyone would bait hate on others for what they use! "I should add I use to fish that way when I was able to go" lol

[@outlawcrocker4321]

I know you're to busy making our jigs to go yourself. I'll be glad when my lucky number comes up and I receive your baits. Maybe you'll you'll catch up soon so you can go

[@903fishing]

He will get to you brother!

[@davidharris4030]

I don’t fish for crappie in the summer but have thought about it. Usually it’s in the fall and winter. I have recently purchased a forward facing sonar and it looks like from KZbin videos it’s a lot easier. In the fall when they are hitting jigs really good I just don’t use minnows because I don’t have to take the time to dig a minnow out of the bucket. I am already making another cast instead of fighting minnows. Don’t think I am against using them because I would and will. Great video! I guess I am just to impatient most of the time to fool with them. I need to get on board and at least take them regardless.

[@903fishing]

Yes sir! I agree with everything you said. Minnows are always a great back up. I would rather have them and not need them, then need them and not have them! Let’s goo! Thanks for watching! God bless

I never go fishing without them all year long. As well I use soft plastics and hand ties sometimes the bigger slabs are caught on the minnows. I’ve seen no matter what color ,size, and jig type they choose live minnows. Some days vice versa. I see people tip their jigs with minnows but when the fish bite how do you know what they prefer.

They are definitely a great back up! Thanks for watching and the support! God bless

Fun video! Until I started watching you last fall, I always used minnows year round and can find crappie on most days. I'm really interested to hear more about the 'threading' technique you were using and the logic behind it versus more traditional methods (to me at least). Thanks again!😎

[@903fishing]

It’s pretty simple. I believe I explain in the vidoes. I used to just use the threading technique when the bluegill would be giving me fits, they can take that minnow off easy when only hooked through the back or top of body. But when I thread them on they can’t get that minnow off as easy, and I keep the minnow moving. I also can usually catch 1-4 crappie off 1 minnow when threading! Thanks for watching! God bless

[@FounderOf4]

#ROADTO100K - I think this is my favorite video so far since you discuss why you are using Minnows in the Summer and then backing it up with a mess of fish!

[@imsowright90]

I can't really say that minnows are always better in the summer. Sometimes and may be most of the time they are and sometimes they are not. It was just a couple of weeks ago I took the family out to Lake Bob Sandlin crappie fishing. They did not seem to want minnows (rigged using your technique). I caught more on jigs about the rate of 5 to 1. I have also seen where they would not hardly touch a jig, but would minnows. So based on my experience in the summer, they like minnows better most of the time, but not all the time. I would not ever say that if you use minnows, you can't fish. If you are putting fish in the boat, you are fishing. I fish both ways, but use jigs most of the time, but often switch to minnows in the summer. Thanks for the video. Love me some crappie fishing no matter which way I fish them. Lol.

In many areas live bait is not readily available in the summer. My local bait shops only carry minnows during the winter time for ice fishing.

Amen to that brother! Thanks for watching and the support! God bless

[@marcusmorton8101]

We mostly have black crappie where I’m from and they are picky. They’re nothing like white crappie.

[@903fishing]

True. Black crappie are more aggressive in my opinion, atleast that’s what I see down here. Better fight when hooked! Thanks for watching! God bless

[@tracyjackson7797]

I love jig, facing it more of a challenge to catch Croppie

[@903fishing]

Yes but the whole point is to put fish in the boat. And minnows will do just that. Thanks for watching! God bless

[@ravekinglrg]

I never use live bait and do perfectly just fine I just don’t bother to waste my money on minnows Plus I caught caught more fish with my jigs than I did with minnows when I was fishing with a buddy

[@903fishing]

Whatever works for you brother! God bless and thanks for watching!

[@slabslayer258]

Stumps are natural cover brush piles aren’t is main reason I can determine stumps hold better fish maybe not as many sometimes a lot I seen stump today had about 40 head on it

[@903fishing]

Stacked up!

[@keithneal1696]

I like fooling the fish instead of feeding nothing wrong with fishing with minnows I just like the thrill getting them to hit a jig when the bite gets really hard I’ll use minnows or waxies I believe that knowing where they’re at and how to approach them is most important

[@903fishing]

I agree with you brother. A jig bite is awesome, but you can almost always count on minnows to do the trick. Thanks for watching and commenting! God bless

[@johnfarr8933]

Even when I jig fish ,I will also tip the jig with minnows

[@903fishing]

Yes sir! That is a great idea. Especially if the crappie are a little finicky! Thanks for watching! God bless!

[@Henacii]

Always loved minnows never understood the hate

[@903fishing]

It’s crazy how someone will knock you for putting fish in the boat. I appreciate you for watching! God bless

[@zenocrooks7845]

My friend kicked my a$$ with minnows and now I set my pride to the side and became a better fisherman. I use minnows now

[@903fishing]

They flat out work! I appreciate you for watching and commenting! God bless

[@Coopersboy7]

I use minnows, but in the summer time I get those little 1” baby Shad. They don’t stay alive long but crappie slam them

[@903fishing]

Yes sir! Smaller profile bait in the summer definitely helps!

[@sistaslab3159]

Awesome video

903 the way it look when you hook your minn, it look like you kill them is that so we need 2 c how u hook them, One of your subscribers

[@903fishing]

Well I have shown in numerous videos how I hook them. In the mouth, out the gill, and hook the minnow in the top of the back. You are not puncturing anything that would kill the minnow. Minnow is alive. Thanks for watching! God bless

[@pranksterDoug]

What model trolling motor are you using? Traxxis?

[@903fishing]

It’s the minn Kota Terrova. 12V 55# thrust ipilot spotlock! I love it. Thanks for watching! God bless

[@pranksterDoug]

@903fishing I didn't know you can get them with a handle.

[@903fishing]

@pranksterDoug do what? Lol

[@pranksterDoug]

@903fishing in the video. Your Minn Kota has a huge handle. I didn't know the Terrova came with one.

[@903fishing]

@pranksterDoug shaft? Not a handle. This motor is remote control
