AnglingBuzz Ice Show 3: Ice Fishing Crappies

Crappies are one of the most popular fish to chase across the ice belt and for good reason. They can be found in big schools, they are fairly easy to catch, and they make a great table fare. In this episode we will take a look at some tips and tactics on ice fishing crappies.

To begin the show we'll join Jake Wallace and John Crane as they offer up some tips and tactics on targeting late season crappies.

Then we'll head over to Northern Wisconsin and join Caleb Wistad and Jake Wallace as they share a unique strategy for targeting crappies after dark.

Then Jeremy Smith highlights his four favorite St. Croix ice rods for targeting crappies in different situations. Afterwards, we'll join Matt Johnson of Clam Outdoors as he shares some tips on utilizing spoons for crappies.

Finally to wrap up the show, we'll join Mike Hehner and Phil Laube as they use Humminbird MEGA Live imaging to track down and catch roaming basin crappies.

Nice crappies an sunfish, I have 3 pinhead pro I use them all the time when I go ice fishing

I like using a spring bobber on the top of my rod to indicate an up strike. Sometimes the fish will push your bait up and you miss the bite. With a spring bobber you see that movement of your bait.

I just received my 2 st criox tundra rod. I can't wait to use this season.

one tip for that pinhead minnow box would be to take the giant snaps off and just use one small quick clip snap on the rod you are using. that giant shiny size 2 snap isn't the best. why use fluoro if you are going to attach it with a huge snap like that. I'm just saying.
