I actually do really well with a small pimple tipped with a fathead for crappie. I'm not good enough to get them consistently with plastics. You can't work the very bottom like you usually do for perch. Depending on your location, some crappie will be more than 1/2 way up the water column. When they get picky. I'll throw a size 12 treble on with fathead. Dead stick my jig like a tipup. This may be the last year to be able to use 3 rods ice fishing, but that method works great when I get on them. 3 holes in a 1/2 circle around my bucket. If you can dial in the proper depth (Electronics is key) set all lines to that depth and magic will happen eventually.
