Most of my night bite crappies come on a green, glow, #10 rat finkee with a small fathead minnow.  I constantly check the minnow to make sure it's lively and not full of weeds.  I re-charge the jig with a Lazer light each time I bring it up.

  I prefer the smallest swedish pimple in glow tipped with a small emerald shiner, or a kastmaster in blue/chrome.  If they are feeding on zooplankton then I like a green/glow demon tipped w/ spikes.

#12 flirty girty's (might be spelled wrong).  Northland Tackle Fire eye jig, bluish in color (glo).  Anything green has been working real well for me lately.

Small swedish pimple with a bit of trailing worm. Works great for me.
