  • In this video I show you what gear and set up I use for trolling crankbaits for crappie. I cover rods, reels, line, baits and other terminal tackle. There is a follow up video to this one of the actual trip to Lake of the Ozarks which you will find a link to at the end of this video when the subsequent video is published.

    You are my crappie hero. Thank you for all the videos and very helpful hints and tricks. Your videos have greatly improved my success. For 30 plus years all I did was single pole with a minnow or a jig in northeast Arkansas and always had success, but I have moved to Heber springs Arkansas and fish Greers Ferry lake and it was a defiantly a 180 as far as water clarity and structure. This lake is similar to lake of the Ozarks and your advise and wisdom is much appreciated. God bless and keep those videos coming.

    Hi Mike, on this rod holder set-up, do you remember the height of the riser? Looks about seat height... Also is it just one trolling bar, or did yiu connect 2 bars together with the cutting board? Thsnk you for any info..

    • @MikeBakerVideos
      @MikeBakerVideos  Рік тому

      Not sure of the riser height on this setup. It is a Driftmaster rod holder. Single bar that goes all the way across the back of the boat. It is the tallest riser they sold at the time.

    Great Job Mike I started flat lining crank baits a few years ago with great success, especially in LOZ (when the boat traffic permits}, The most impressive aspect that fisherman can take away from your video's is the simplistic method you have developed. Mike you have me rethinking my setup of linecounter reels, staggered 14 to 6 foot rods, snap weights and braided line with 6 ft flora leaders, Yea we catch lots of crappie, but sometimes my method is little overwhelming. I do have a question, can you elaborate on your replacement hooks, short or long shank, round bend, 1x 2x, size 4 or 6, front hook back hook? Thanks alot Keep up the good work

    Another great video Mike. FYI...Fred's cranks will run just a bit deeper than the 300's...also, you should get a few of his holographic colors...awesome! My question...do you have any experience with the BnM Pro Trolling Rod? I just got some 8ft'ers. Everyone told me about the amazing backbone these rods have but, to me, they seem to be on the light side...not much backbone at all.

    When you throw a line out, how do you keep the lure from turning around in flight and one of the trebles entangling the line? That seems to be a problem for me that I haven’t witnessed in any of your videos. I grew up on cork and minnows and worms and a cane pole. This is all new to me. Your videos help a lot .
