I hit the ice today and got my limit of crappies (25) within 4 hours, all 10"- 12 1/2". I caught many smaller crappies, gills and a fat old channel cat (guess 4# range).I tried many jigs like little mic,jigging raps, ballsy's and others but the only thing I could get them to bite on was the tetr-totr with spikes.

Looks like you had a fun day Lee, everyones sink needs to look like that

. You said you were using spikes, do you prefer them over waxies for crappie?

I never buy waxies any more. Spikes to me are 10 times the bait. If I want bouncy like a waxie, I'll just add a couple more spikes to the hook. Almost all the guy's I fish with has switched from waxies to spikes as well. If you have not used them your missing the boat bud.

They are maggots, white fly larvae.

this came up before on another board....
there is a long and short version and profile. these use to be really popular but now only in certain areas. here are a few to take a look at. they dont produce everyday but when they work they work great..
tons of colors out there so just go with your fav.. i like the shorties but always carry both!

We call them wigglers here. Those, and the small Wolfram jigs are the best for me. www.yourbobbersdown.co m
