Lake Poinsett Crappie

Wife and I had another great trip. Catching crappie on every cast is a blast. Tried out the i_fish BG 1 1.5 gram jig head on this trip. If you want a US market jig head for panfish this is the one to get. Used the usual assortment of JDM UL rods on this trip. Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching.

Purchasing Minn Kota Ulterra Quest?....Be Aware!!
i been so busy lately at work i don't think i have fished in 3 months. in another year or so that little gem of a lake you've found is gonna have some really monster crappie. sure hope they don't wait to long to let people keep some. an overstocked crappie population can be disasterous for any lake.
I am a fan of jdm tackle just like you. Thanks for all the information and your knowledge. I didn’t know before. Can you do a video on finding fish on fish finder? My first rod I bought is Yamaga 711 and just blown away with quality and will probably never sell. I want to order another rod which one you recommend next.
beautiful fishing spot
If you asked me to choose between crappie and bluegill action…that’d be a tough choice. Summertime gill action is a blast, but always look forward to when the cooler weather rolls in and the crappie bite picks up. The BG-1 is a nice jig head, for sure. Caught some nice bluegill on them last Summer. Your excitement and appreciation for ultralight fishing is contagious, Randy! Every time you post, I’m ready to get back on the water. Would have had some nice filets if you had been looking to keep some of those slabs. Those black nose are beautiful. Awesome day on the water! Thanks for taking us along.🙏🐟
randy... maybe it would nice to keep the camera running during the day and share your thoughts and approach during the fishing session. Not just reeling the fish, but what are you thinking when they are not biting, changing lures and stuff.. I don't think editing will be much more difficult. Editing videos is not hard. Making reviews is hard ..
Noted!
Great video I got me some jdm rods and heading for the white river next week …
@@davemathis4215 thanks. Got get em!
Looking good Randy !
Thanks for watching.
I like that boat!
Thanks for watching.....really enjoying the boat.
you can always tell when a lake has really good nutrient content. thick shoulders on the fish and those deep bold colors defiantly a healthy lake. even those short crappie are stout. i see the stick steer isn't on yet.
Thanks much for the support. It for sure is a healthy lake. The marine dealer is covered up with getting duck hunters ready to go. Didn't realize just how big a deal that is until I moved to Arkansas.
@@troutmagnetman stutguard, Arkansas is considered the duck capital of the world
Looks like a great day of fishing did you ever end up purchasing the eradicator in the 6’9 model ? I just picked one up last week and what a blast it is to fish with my new fav rod . Take care
Thanks much for watching. Never did get the 69 model.
Hi Randy! have you been using your Abu Garcia Zenon reel? i bought one based on your Recommendation and love it.
Haven't use it lately but I do love those reels. Thanks for watching.
good action, Randy. Things started moving here right around the same time..
@@ifishcatfish thanks for watching. Used one of your 1.5 gram jig heads yesterday. Worked out good…hope to see it in a #8 hook. I’m finding the older I get the more trouble I have getting a TM on the smaller hooks. Next video up will be a short review of it. Was using it in timber. Pulling out a lot of crappie and they all stayed buttoned up.
That first shellcracker!🤯 The color on the bluegill there is beautiful. And so many crappie. Talk about panfish heaven. Love those double ups. Just pure fun. Awesome outing, Randy!
Thanks for watching Chris.
Good to see another video. How come you dont use yamaga Rod?
Thanks.....I only have an 83 model left. Sold the others and now wish I had them back.
@@troutmagnetman I bought 711 and just love it. very sensitive and beautifully made in Japan. The price is unbeatable. I am thinking of getting a few more.
Good to see you and your wife fishing.
Thanks....
Just started using a diplomat extreme and I gotta say it is some of the most fun fishing. Hooked into a 1.5lb bass with some 2.3lb ester and it might as well been move dick
Always a great video when seeing you fish the diplomatic extreme, I noticed you dropped in lemoni line size from 2.3 to 1.75. How’s the performance difference? Thanks Randy.
Thanks much. Can cast a little further with 1.75. Not real any other difference other than it does test your fish fighting skills a little more.
I am thinking about buying a Minnkota Ultrex but not sure I like the idea of not getting good customer service. Nothing makes me madder than companies not taking responsibility for their products when they fail.
I had this stow issue last season with my new/old Ulterra and all it needed was an update that I did on my phone
still watching your old videos, Randy. Don't u feel nostalgic
I sure do Victor.
My concern was the stow issue
I’m so glad I saw this video. I was on the fence with this and the garmin kraken force. This video sealed the deal. Thank you.
How do you feel about it 10 months later?
I am on a replacement motor. While it has worked fine every time I go out I wonder will it do like the first one….it failed to stow. That’s always on my mind and at my age it’s not a good feeling to have.
Hello The video is already very old, but I'm still hoping for an answer. I have the opportunity to buy a barely used 20 luvias lt 2000 (made in japan). Unfortunately, I read a lot of bad things about the reel. She has a lot of resistance when cranking?! Is the reel really not worth the money?
I have not had any issues at all with my Luvias. I really like mine.
@@troutmagnetman Hello randy Thanks for your answer. I was able to look at the luvias. I liked her a lot. In a direct comparison with my Vanford, I didn't have the impression that the Luvias had any greater resistance. I bought the Luvias at a good price including almost new Varivas. Thanks for your reviews

Hello Troutman! I heard about your channel from Ifish. I am interested in Varivas aji.. I am hunting horse mackerel. which nylon, polyester or braid do you recommend? I would like to buy Aji blue moon but I am not sure how it performs. is it stretchy a lot? is it sensitive to fish bite? should I maybe choose some other varivas? maybe Super Trout Area SVG ? Thank you!
The Blue moon is the best FC line I have used. I have had no issues with and it. It sinks and is more sensitive than mono. It has less stretch than nylon line. Don't overlook the Ester lines. They have no stretch and are probably the most sensitive lines you can get.
@@troutmagnetman thank you for the answer! which Ester lines do you recommend the most? (money is not a problem)
@@ivanvedris9636 I prefer the Varivas ES2 Lemoni line in 2.3# test.
i feel your pain brother. i had same issues with ulterra and minnkota
I just found the SS jig heads on eBay. This is the lead ones. The tungsten were a lil too much for me at this particular time. I’m hoping to try them soon.
What jighead do you recommend buying now?
Im getting into JDM fishing. I have been watching and learning. Thank you for all the info and awesome fishing. Keep posting I am enjoying every video.
I have a 2015 ultera and I found if you keep up with the maintenance and you would have any problems.
I notice you kind of jiggle the rod tip on a straight retrieve. Is that how you suggest fishing for panfish? Loop knot or which knot? You just let jig fall to bottom or close to it and thin reel it back slowly? Thanks.
It’s called “Twitching”. Very productive way to catch all panfish. I do reel back slow but the rod tip is always twitching.
So you use the tungsten jighead from them in 0.5 gram number 6 size? What other go to baits other than trout magnet in bison and sowbug color you use? You have link to other baits you use? Thanks. Love your channel and videos Randy! You in Tennessee?
I had an older power drive,Motor worked good,but foot control kept breaking.SO THEY CHANGED THE CONNECTOR ON THE NEW ONE AND NO PARTS FOR THE OLD ONE.SCREW THE CUSTOMER!
MORE MONEY,LESS SERVICE,RIDICULOUS $4300 for a useless boat anchor!
The fisherman becomes the netter, and the netter becomes the fisherwoman. Loved the "Alright now. Do I have to teach you how to net!" 🤣 PERFECT! Great trip.. again! That place is on fire! ♨
you have found quite the pond mr randy. the fish aren't giants but they are as healthy as i have ever seen. hard to believe they aren't beat up and poor after spawning all summer. must be some rich nutrients in there.
Looks like a great spot to 🐟
Better watch out, Randy. Next thing you know… TroutMagnetWoman will be catching the big ones before TroutMagnetMan can get to them. Susan’s no rookie angler. 😂 You are living the dream out there, my friend. That shellcracker she got at 11:40 was a hoss!😮 Awesome trip.
what a honey hole! Great fishing for sure, for any month of the year, let alone now..
Troutmagnetman,Wow, that is useful ~ till next time! 😇
Pistol Creek Fishing channel suggested i ask you about Varivas line. What Varivas line would you suggest for clear creeks? Pound test? Clear fleurocarbon? Which specific Varivas? Thanks.
I would give one of these a try. The Blue Moon in 2# testwww.varivas.fishing/products/ajing-master-blue-moon-fluorocarbon/ and the Master Limited in the 2# www.varivas.fishing/products/area-super-trout-master-limited-premium-fluorocarbon/ Either one should work for what you are wanting to do.
@@troutmagnetman thanks. I love your videos. You seem very kind and you are a great teacher.
@@troutmagnetman can fish see the blue line in clear water? Or is line so small they aren't line shy with it?
@@michaellarkins6983 FC lines reflect less light than other lines. In my opinion the blue color will not matter. If I was worried about the color then I would go with the clear FC. The only reason I don't use the clear FC is that I literally cannot see it. Now if you are fishing for trout I would for sure go with the clear.
@@michaellarkins6983 thanks for the kind words and support of the channel.
The trout we catch are so fragile they die if you look at them, I can't believe the one you dropped lived lol
Enjoyed the video Randy. That was cool in the beginning of the actual fishing part, demonstrating how you twitch the TM. The rhythm and retrieve speed for me can change everyday, but the twitch is always the same. At least for me.
Some healthy looking bluegill! Thank you Randy for sharing your fishing adventures!
Glad to hear the “World’s Greatest Net Girl” is landing some shellcracker of her own! 8” bluegill that thick are all the fun a guy could ask for. That bass almost had him a nice meal. Must have been a lunker.😀🐟 So glad you found this place, Randy. It’s infested with slab panfish.
Do you feel the hook up ratio is more or less the same without the leader , i too use this line , I will have to try it without a leader.
Thanks for watching. No difference in the hook up.
I asked you that question and you posted a video about it lol . Thanks for great info I’m just getting into the super ultra light fishing I appreciate the knowledge.
Do you tie a leader onto that lemoni line ? If so what do you use and lb ?
Thanks for watching. I use Varivas FC Shock Leader in either 4 or 5 pound test. www.varivas.fishing/products/area-super-trout-master-limited-shock-leader-vsp-fluorocarbon/
@@troutmagnetman thanks
How do you spool it? Directly to your reel or do you do a mono backing
@@skj468 thanks for watching. I have all shallow spool reels and I do not use backing.
