Crappies in the hole

[IceNomads]

One of my favorite techniques is a 1/16 ounce frostee jiggin spoon tipped with red eurolarvae. Try it and send a message to tell me how it worked or works

"eurolarvae"?

"eurolarvae"?

AKA Spikes

[edmonds]

euorolarvae..........t hey are British.....much more sophisticated then what we use.

Dude those are sweet.  Thanks SkeeterJeff.  I have never seen spikes in different colors like that.  That could make all the difference when those panfish are being finicky.  Does anyone use these?

[rlvb]

we use them here all winter long on panfish,even this fall allready we can get them . fish don't just turn on when they see em, they gotta be in the biting mood, then it can be fun.

[edmonds]

Maybe I should order some and see how they work out in NYS.  Thanks for the info.

I only have white spikes out here where I am, so if I need color variations I use Berkley Gulp waxies in white usually, but have pink and brown as well, tip em on a gold Kastmaster spoon and its usually very deadly

[rico]

I have seen at baitshops around here   red, green, and pink........it just gives you something to experiment with when the fish aint biting.............I prefer 3 "au natural" eurolarvae on my "Moe's Blue Glo-jig" myself!!!!!

Little atom makes some powder for coloring waxies and things i think for you guys that can't get colored ones.

I had gotten some "freeze dried" maggots in a can before. They were AWESOME! and a heck of a lot cheaper than waxies! the gills loved them and the crappies had a hard time getting to them before the gills did, but worked for both

[IceNomads]

if theyve never seen them theyll bite like crazy

Thanks for the link, will be trying out those variations in colors.  Good for matching jig color.
