Cool casting technique. And crappie to boot!!!

[@DrZiggyzoo1]

Crappie fishing, my favorite!

[@AbsoluteStud]

6:35 I think wally can hear the music we hear haha

[@braydenharrison3952]

Tried "shooting" a crank bait... Needless to say I didn't catch many fish that day but I did have a fun day trying to get a 2 barbs out of my hand

[@jrd8782]

Brayden Harrison hang on to the back of the last hook you should be fine, works for me anyway

[@BiggCoffee]

I could watch this 1000 times. 👍🏾. Nothing like a Mr. Crappie Jig. (BiggCoffee OutDoors Magazine)

[@dustyflair]

Wally is the man!!!

[@aidanwheeler7129]

I tried this and one of my new favorite dock crappie fishing techniques

[@Reynoldss3]

I'm a fan! I can't wait to try this technique, thanks for the lesson.

[@kennytootallslater2571]

i love watchin your shows i've learned alot from ya sir

[@FishnTheSouthOkanagan78]

the technique used in this video is called the 'bow and arrow' technique, the 'bow' is your rod and your 'arrow' is your lure. Ive used this method before i learned how to skip under docks while fishing to bass, it's very affective method that i sometimes use from time to time when fishing on my float tube for bass and since im so low to the water it's easier to use this method then to attempt to actually skip. Great video, i will consider this technique when i try to catch my first Crappie.

[@ronaldwood6324]

Good show , covered all the bases .thanks from Indiana

[@Youthoughtso185]

He's still got it!!

[@pearlwavey9051]

Love the video plan on shopping the store👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@01968752]

Thanks!

[@civilized5734]

very cool nice tips

[@MidwestFishingShow]

These dock techniques are no joke I do the same thing it works.

[@Mayates86]

you are the crappie master

[@tommynguyen1822]

Nice

[@Winkiedoodles]

Really enjoyed Mr. Crappie's video, and suspect he was fishing somewhere on LOZ. I've got one of his Lew's signature "shooters" and really like it. One of these days I'll give that hi-vis line a try.

[@Wired2Fish]

This was shot on Chickamauga in Tennessee. It was really tough crappie fishing then. But he managed a few keepers on film in those conditions. His rods definitely work. I've limited out my last two trips using what he taught me on my home lake (Ky Lake). Thanks for watching!

[@gregh3947]

We fish Chickamauga, and as for that water color on the video. Pretty much how it looks most of the time to me. How would the pros classify that? Muddy, stained, clear or other? I’d call it stained and choose my jig colors with that thought. And then try any color. Hehe, Just curious as we’re new to it and would like a baseline pro opinion.

[@tmise50]

Like that lure what is it?

[@StormLaker]

Great tactic I've used with great effect on Lake of the Ozarks. More floating docks there than anywhere else in that part of the country!

[@StormLaker]

Be really careful- some dock owners don't appreciate fishermen slinging metal jigs at their expensive fiberglass speed boats!

[@kitcarson7572]

StormLaker1975 Yes us experienced dock fishermen do not fish around docks if the owners are present and enjoying their day. There are lots of docks on most lakes and it is simple courtesy to not fish docks if the owners are enjoying their day. Also those commercial docks with video cameras and no fishing signs are also best avoided. Nothing makes more noise than a bit of a brain fart and smacking an aluminum pontoon with a jig. Do not do that if the owner is eating breakfast in the shoreline gazebo............Chuckle!! Cheers!

[@StormLaker]

I remember one fall morning I was down at LOZ fishing for bass around this one cove- lots of nice houses around it, etc. As I approached this one set of docks, I literally had a homeowner run down to the end of the dock and tell me that I couldn't fish within 50 feet of HIS dock or his neighbor's.......So I looked right at him and said "Oh, the fishing must be pretty good under YOUR dock....sad to say this isn' YOUR lake, haha". And promptly threw my crankbait 5 feet off the end of his dock- and nailed a stout 18 inch bass off the brush pile down there, lol.

[@StormLaker]

I can cast 50 feet with a Norman DD22 on the end...no problemo, lol.

[@ralphmurphy1617]

they don't own the water. be respectful. as long as you're not on their dock or hitting their stuff, no big deal. if they're out on it, move on.

[@searcher2328]

You said you use the high vis line the fish can't see it,,,,but do you use a leader?

[@davidsettle8456]

Wanting the best rod and reel combo for crappie and panfish.

[@michaelpierce1553]

Hey Wally, what is that tool { you are wearing around your neck } you use to remove the hooks so quick and easy? Also where do we get one? Thanks for the videos!

[@boastarr1095]

where are some good spots on Joe pool to be successful at catching crappie? I'd love to have a fish fry next time I head out... lol I will take all the advice I can get....

[@kevinlilly7406]

What hook removal tool are you using in this video?

[@josephauld6565]

What is the ideal line weight and jig weight??

[@queendoyle6537]

Can I use 10 lb test braid to catch crappie

[@bobbynguyen8676]

I felt like he was trying to seduce or some shit with this music. LMAO!

[@Yungtingz]

whats the name of the rod he is using? i cant seem to find them and ive seen them mainly for crappie fishing?

[@Wired2Fish]

+Young Lovee www.mrcrappie.com/products/Lews/wally-marshall-signature-series-rods.php Wally Marshall Signature Series Light Rods 7-foot length Light Action.

[@benladik7856]

what's the deal with that Ron Burgundy 70s porno music?!

[@Wired2Fish]

+ben ladik we like to mix it up and have a little fun

[@thatogboysubscribe2064]

ha

[@BassMonkey]

Can any one explain why. He uses a cable drive. Trolling motor vs electric steer with spot lock

[@NytronX]

Which fish hook removal tool is that?

[@Wired2Fish]

It's one Wally Marshall is developing. Probably be called the Crappie Toothpick under the Mr. Crappie line. He unhooked several deep hooked crappie during our session with it in a matter of seconds.

[@mateofuimaonojr936]

What action is your Pole

[@mikewest712]

Mateo Fuimaono Jr *rod

[@SuperJeffrey03]

Weird2fish what reel are you using

[@AKC357]

+Baccabajan What Length rod is that? I just received my 7' UglyStick on yesterday.

[@AKC357]

+Baccabajan Its an UltraLight Spinning Rod.

[@Wired2Fish]

+Baccabajan Wally likes a 7-foot light action Lew's Wally Marshall Crappie Rod and that's his Wally Marshall Spinning Reel also from Lew's

[@martinwhitehurst9893]

What lure are you using?

[@DzoavitsGames]

this looks like a really good way to get a hook in your hand.....

[@AKC357]

+TheSlightlyHomosexualFeminist Practice Makes Perfect. I learned it from Mr. Crappie, and Perfected it after about a week of consistent Practice.

[@scottcozart8950]

when is the best months to shoot under docks .

[@Wired2Fish]

Spring and fall but if the dock has brush and deep water under it, it can hold crappie all months of the year. On lakes like Lake of the Ozarks the catch crappie shooting docks spring, fall, winter and even summer.

[@southernsportsman5252]

is he using a light or ultralight pole

[@Wired2Fish]

+SouthernSportsman52 Light

[@southernsportsman5252]

would ultra light work

[@CharlesJohnson1612]

+SouthernSportsman52 yes

[@DesertDigger1]

Pan Fryers.

[@illduitmyself]

i bought a small crappie spinning rod and i like it a lot. i smacked a tree and broke the tip though :(

[@jumbalyiajefferson]

good technique, but some people aren't so friendly having boats that close to their dock. Legal or not, their complaint is they don't like having hooks stuck through the dock. I fish docks so can't say I;m against it, but I don't come that close just in case someone is cranky lol

[@KevinBrown-lx1yz]

+jumbalyiajefferson Seen a guy drown because of an over fished dock.. He was trying to save a kid who had fallen in at the dock.. He was a strong swimmer; he swam around the dock and around, then wasn't found.. Firemen pulled him out said his legs were caught in lots line and him being tired he couldn't free himself.. I was 10 yrs old then 2nd dead person seen and do not like to see anglers at the docks since.. The kid had been pulled in the current out the harbor into open water, they found him two days later..

[@ralphmurphy1617]

they don't own the water. if they are out on their dock, i move on. let them enjoy their stuff.

[@midgebarker4022]

What is wallys favorite boat for crappie fishing?

[@Wired2Fish]

Hi Midge, Wally runs a Ranger Boat -- one in the Z Commanche Series.

[@angelosereda9921]

you should always hold the hook at the bend when you shoot under docks

[@ralphmurphy1617]

i hold the head. never had a mishap

[@willarnaudville1058]

Honestly I hate catching crappie I live in abq nm and catch nothing but crappie unless I go to pecos

[@lcarrscottishtxn]

Great technique! You can practice shootin em under a lawn chair in the back yard!! Make em count!! Catch em!!!!

[@madfishinskillz]

Do you find it awkward at all fishing like that so close to a stranger's dock??

[@Wired2Fish]

MadFishinSkillz Sometimes. But Wally has been doing it so long, he never worries about touching the dock ever. Beginners should practice shooting in open water before approaching unknown docks.

[@AKC357]

A dock cannot limit anyone from fishing around it, unless the rules are changed where one can only come so close, and or get permission to fish it...NO chance of that happening.

[@tennriverfishing4370]

Strike King writers conference?

[@Wired2Fish]

Nah this was on Lake Chickamauga a couple weeks before that. It was really tough fishing for both bass and crappie then but Wally still managed a few keepers on video.

[@antbanks7548]

Can he really shoot a lure 60 feet like he said? That dock didn't look 80 feet long and 60 feet seems a bit long to be able to shoot it. I could be wrong for sure, it just seems a little exaggerated.

[@mrchristopher541]

+ant banks i thought the same thing he mustve meant to say 6

[@ralphmurphy1617]

i thought the same thing. 20-30 ft maybe. i bought his rod and it's not so hot for this. loomis bronzeback is the dock shooter. not this

[@bigdvids2720]

60ft under lol

[@rebeccanewcomb6097]

Crappie while fun to catch, are far from great table fare. Bluegills or perch hell even catfish are better eating.

[@Basshunter186]

I was cringing to see if he hook himself every cast!

[@Wired2Fish]

Basshunter186 Wally actually grabs the jigs by their head so he never is in contact or around the hook. He teaches his clients to do the same. I sometimes grab the bend of the hook and other times I grab the head. Never been hooked and I've shot 1000s of times. But it is to get the grip and technique down before getting to far ahead of yourself.

[@kitcarson7572]

Basshunter186 You will be fine, just hold the jig head with hook forward and inside. Get a six foot six or longer rod with a fast tip and with a bit of practice it is amazing how accurate you can become. I even fish for largemouth bass by shooting docks. ..........Here comes Bubba and Bubby and make two casts beside a dock, then fire up the boat and off they go to the secret place 10 miles across the lake, I just shoot a small finese worm under the same dock and catch a bass or two. I have more fun with that, and when Bubba and Bubby see me at the ramp, did you do any good, sure did I have a limit. No you do not they say, we did not see a fish all day. Well look in the livewell. Gee what did you catch them on? I like to keep a rod on the boat deck with something like a purple Rattletrap or something, yep I caught em on that. I mean you do have to have a bit of fun............Chuckle. Cheers!!

[@daniels4227]

Basshunter186 LMAO that is the FIRST thing I thought of when he loaded up the rod while holding the jig!!
