Drop Shot Crappie

[206]

Who woulda thought, I read a reply by Stoty that mentioned drop shot'n pan slammers for crappie, Well I got tired of the slip bobber and switched to a drop shot and the crappie crushed it!! tried again tonight even the bluegills love this technique! Throw in the odd 3lbs bass and game on you got yourself a great outing lol

drop shot has become my go to technique for many species in last 2 seasons.

I've found a lot of times they'd hammer the dropshot weight on the way down, lol. Switched up to small micro tubes solved that problem.

Yes do this all the time. Great technique for all types of species. I even caught an OOS Pike last Sunday.

forget the dropshot - I like going after my crappie with a micro crankbait! ) Dropshots work great though... nice haul!

I love micro cranks and mini spinnerbaits! They smash them!
