I am new to crappie fishing as a species but I've stumbled on to some lakes with some real slabs.
I usually only fish minnows on tip ups or single hook dead sticking.
How do you hook minnows on jigs? Through the top lip, or along the back?
I had on a Hali (small chain with single hook) and hooked through back. Just seemed hooking through mouth is more natural action.
Size jigs, traditional vs. horizontal jigs work better?
Thanks for all the help guys. I know it's "fishin" but trying to put my kids on more fish. Caught two little ones. Guy next to us had some absolute slabs.
