    Yes I enjoy watching your talk videos as well as your jig making videos. I just started crappie fishing about 3 years ago and I now make my own jigs but there is so much to learn. That's where you come in. Thanks Stanley

    Crappie fishing rules. I’m glad I got into it. Couldn’t find them yesterday, all yellow perch. Is it true when loads of perch are around the crappie scatter? 🔥🔥💯💯

    • @realcmj
      @realcmj  17 днів тому

      Not sure we only have 4 inch yellow perch here and they are rare to catch. I think your main issue is that bridge is kinda shallow unless you get some warm weather the deeper water is "warmer" to them so they might have moved on out till you get some warmer days
