Used the new lantern I bought last night and the tip for minnows in the 2 liter bottle.....worked wonders.....we caught 36 nice ones in about 3 hrs.
what is our limit on crappies?
25
Thanks for the feed back on my tip with the two Litre. It has usualy worked for me, but was wondering how others would do with it. Thanks for trying it, and refering back the results!.
my uncle had just told me about that technique before you mentioned it. It sounds like a great idea, ill have to try it soon. Think it would work for perch too I assume?
a simular trick for perch is to bring a sucker harness(like the clips used on spearing decoys) after catching a dink..i lower him back down on the harness...it keeps the schools from scattering as much when one gets pulled up..a confidence decoy type of thing.
all i have to say about the 2 liter bottle trick is dont get caught... its illegal but works!
is it really? Whats the law state that goes against it
i believe it would be in the category with chumming, and chumming is illegal, granted everyone has dabbled here and there in the chuming process. But while we are on the illegal side of the things that catch fish throw a goldfish in with the minnows adds color and fish love goldfish
theres nothing in the rule book about chumming either though.
Why can they just list what is legal and what is not .
L A W Y E R SRLWagner: what do you use as a weedbed?I have constructed 8 structures on a string. I used rubber decoy line for the string. I crimped on Duck Decoy Weights on the end to hold them down.I then used dismantled fake plants that look somewhat like rubber trees. Very broad leafs. I slide the double leafs down the cord, and then use clear 100% siliconized caulk to hold them in place, and it has held for three years now. The structure is about 24" wide at the base, 5 feet tall, and tapers to 8-12" at the top. They push down into a 6" ice hole with the aide of your scoop. Then they pull out very easy.I slid a slice of Round pool foam, like the 5' sticks that kids use to play with. I cut a two to three inch section off, and slide it on the string. This keeps the structure upiright.
