Big Crappie & Whipers | Fishing Bridge Pylons on Lake Conroe
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- What's up Folks!?!? Welcome back to the channel! After my first trip to Lake Conroe, I couldn't wait to get back to chase those SLAB crappie! Started in open water, and made my way to the 1097 bridge where we found schools of nice fish on almost each pylon that we fished. Although the day stated off really slow, it ended in spectacular fashion!
I hope you enjoy the video, and thank you for your viewing support!!

Dearly departed, we are gathered here today…😂🤣😂!!! Nice quality slabs! That’s the type of day that keeps you coming back fishing daylight to dark 🔥💪🏾💯
Man, tell me about it! And yeah, I took some to the grave/grease lmao!!!
It’s been a couple of decades since I fished Conroe but used to tear them up under that 1097 bridge if that’s where you were. Great video and thank you.
A couple of decades is too long! We were at 1097. That was my first time fishing that bridge, and I really enjoyed it! I hope you can get back out there and have some luck like I did!
Mannnnn...this video would have made a nice Catch and Cook. Tight Lines!
I couldn’t agree more! And that hybrid tasted amazing too once I cut out that red meat! But I appreciate ya man! I’ll do another catch clean and cook soon!
Nice video Will keep them coming.
Preciate ya Squido!
Them crappies say, don’t put him in here with us!😂😂😂

I see you got your Lake Conroe bridge lesson. Lol. You just never know what your gonna set the hook on and that's just what I love about Lake Conroe. Healthiest Lake anywhere around these parts and that's with many species of fish. Nice action great video. Stay on um Will. Fo Sho.
Oh yeah!!! Had a taste of em, and now I’m hooked on Lake Conroe! Amazing fishing on that lake! Preciate ya 💯
Boaters always putting our yaks down but crickets when they’re rolling up on us when we’re stretching out the lines 😂
I know it’s some boaters out there that don’t respect us kayakers, but there are plenty who do! Mad props to those who do!! Keep slaying those fish bro ✊🏿
Good stuff Will! 🔥🔥🔥
Matt!!!! Precaite ya bro! Long time, we need to link up soon! I’ll hit you on IG
Yeah man for sure!! Hit me up!!
Awesome video bro
Thank bro!
Nice video Will! Nice slabs on those hand ties! Will I had a Kayak 8 years ago love it, but at my age I had to paddle to a bank every hour to stand up or my back would get to hurting.
I know what you mean! My kayak isn’t the most comfortable, and when the water is rough like it was, I get a real workout and my body takes a beating!
Gotta be hard headed to be consistent on catching crappie..... Nice Catches
Thanks SK! It took some real resolve to stay out there! Made some moves and several color changes that day, and ended with a nice bag!
Top notch content upload brother

Love Texas crappie fishing! My lakes were Waxahachie Cedar Creek Navarro Mills and Bardwell
Me too! But Lake Houston is a great challenge almost always!
@@fishingbythenumbers I’m sure it’s so fun!
Dang man! You must be eating a lot of fish.
Yessir! I cooked all of those crappie and the one hybrid that I keep the next day! Firm believer in eat what you bring home!
Nice video bud
Thank you!!!
New to your channel, awesome video!
Nice! Thanks bro, and I appreciate ya checking out the channel!
What type of quick connect are u using to change out ur lures so fast? Great video!!
I found some on Amazon, they are pretty durable too. Here’s the link: No-Knot Fast Snaps Fly Fishing... www.amazon.com/dp/B094QQZQG8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I just moved across the street from lake Monroe not from Texas i definitely need the catfish holes them real pole benders
That’s what’s up! I know where the crappie are at!
do you use the same unit for livescope and sidescan?
I use the same head unit which is a Garmin 8610xsv, but there are two separate transducers. Livescope transducer is the LVS32, and it requires the GLS10 (aka black box) which is a transmitter. My down and side scan transducer is a GT54.
@@fishingbythenumbers Thanks for the info! for some reason I didn't realize we could use both on one unit.
@@fishregulator you have to make sure it’s a livescope compatible unit. Not all of them are. At the moment, I believe only the Echomap UHD, Echomap Ultra and GPSMap units are compatible.
Great video. Can you tell me where you bought your set of fishing jigs?
Thanks!!! It’s a collection of hand ties from multiple folks, but most came from Kim Burnett with Crappie Stopper Jigs. I also bought some from Crappie Collectors and Stump Thumper. All good jigs, and all can be found on Facebook, but Crappie Stopper are the best value and really good quality, and Crappie Collector has some unique color combos at a decent price as well!
Awesome haul. Great video, I have a small YT fishing channel and would love to take you out on my boat sometime fresh or salt and see what all we get into! Keep up the good content
Thanks, I appreciate it! I’ll check out your channel! I really like fishing from my yak, but definitely willing to meet ya on the water sometime
How do you get to the 1097 bridge? Where are you putting in at?
Los, take I-45 north toward Willis. I don’t remember the exit number, but the exit sign says F.M. 1097. Go west down 1097 about 5 miles and you’ll hit the big bridge. As far as putting in, there is no close public boat ramp, but if you have a small kayak, you can try to put in on the far west end of the bridge off the right (north side) of it. Otherwise, Scott’s ridge has a ramp, but it’s about 5 miles to the bridge from the launch. Hope this helps!
Where is this entrance at? How far is this from the bridge?

Question bro. What battery are you using for the Garmin liveScope. I just ordered mine but im gonna need a battery.appreciate it.
I was in my Hobie in this video. I have four 16ah batteries for a total of 64ah. On my new old town, I have a 100ah LiTime LiPro battery running my livescope, fish finder, and lights. If your going to be running only livescope on the battery, then you should be good with 30ah. If running fish finder and livescope off same battery, I’d say go with at least 50ah. The LiTime batteries are pretty good, but if you want blue tooth, then Renogy is pretty good too (there are a few others out there)! If you want enough power for two back to back trips, then you’ll want at least 60-80ah. Hope this helps bro!
Will, where did you buy your box of hand tied jig at? Would you send me the link please.
Enjoy watching your videos.
Thanks for watching! It’s a collection from 3 different folks. Some of my favorites came from Crappie Collector Jigs on Etsy: www.etsy.com/shop/CRAPPIECOLLECTORS?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=837660992
Crappie Stopper jigs by Kim Burnett: www.crappiestopperjigs.com
Stump Thumper Jigs on Facebook: facebook.com/StumpThumperJigs?mibextid=LQQJ4d
All the jig makers are good, but Crappie Stopper & Crappie Collector jigs are best value, with Stump Thumper being more expensive but huge selection.
What state are you fishing in
Texas!
What are those little lures you are using called? Also can you catch Crappie like that all year long on Conroe? I just got a kayak and have been catching bass at Bear Branch off Kurkandahl
Those small jigs are called hand tied jigs. And yes sir, you can catch them year around on any lake! The hardest part can be locating them year round! And if you’re interested in buying some, there are several sellers out there. I like Crappie Stopper Jigs, Crappie Collector jigs, and Stump Thumper Jigs! Good luck!
@@fishingbythenumbers Thank you!
@@fishingbythenumbers Do you ever fish those with bobbers?
You bet!
I do occasionally, but haven’t done it in a video yet. Will try to get some jig and bobber action during this years spawn!
What fish finder are you using
Garmin 8610xsv
What the blue box of rig are you using
That’s just my collection of hand tied jigs from different people. Check out crappiestopperjigs.com or crappie stopper jigs on Facebook
Thanks for the response! I'm hard core salt water ,trying to learn fresh water.
What's the name of the rods you using?
Green one is 8ft ACC Crappie Stix. White one is Denali Pryme. Both good rods!
What boat ramp is that?
I launched from Scott’s ridge, which is about a 2-4 miles from the 1097 bridge
@@fishingbythenumbers oh ok thank you, i havent fished there in about 15 years and i dont think the boat ramp across the street is there anymore
Where the spot at
Lake Conroe, 1097 bridge.
Great video.... Took me 1 hour to get the Hater out of me from being jealous to type this comment but I stuck with bettering myself and pulled through. Be careful you almost got sued by Nintendo for all those Donkey Kong's you had in that Cooler. 😆👍
😭😭😭 now that’s funny! I’m not tryna get sued by anybody, can’t afford it lol!!! And I embrace all the haters too 😎!!! Thanks for the comment, this one made my day!!!
@@fishingbythenumbers You deserved props snagging Quality and Quantity Crappie from a Kayak than people in fully rigged boats.
@@UnLikeU I appreciate that!! I do my best!
How’s it going @fishingbythenumbers do you know any good spots to fish from the bank for crappie and blue gill?
I don’t do much bank fishing, but Luce Bayou is good in the spring if you fish by the bride near the Ponderosa boat ramp. For Lake Conroe, it’s good fishing near Walden and Cagel Park. People also bank fish over at Stubblefield. Check Facebook groups, you should be able to get some good info there! Good luck!
@@fishingbythenumbers I appreciate it!
