That's cool. I just started crappie fishing last year to me they are similar to hunting a whitetail buck anybody can go kill a deer but to target a wise old mature buck you have to constantly change your stratagey to get him. He's different than other deer . Crappie fishing to me is like hunting you have to keep trying different methods to be successful. This video just tought me allot of valuable information. Thank you
Thank you Glenn for the different techniques to fish for crappie. I learned a lot from your video and greatly appreciate all the information. God bless you and have a great week. Mike Brady
Great video Greg. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I know your often busy with your clients, and I learn from those videos too, but really enjoy your instruction videos.
Awesome channel Fan tastic information keep up the great work I know you love doing what you do so do I the world would fish more it be a better place thanks once again
Enjoyed your video, Greg. Sure wish there were crappie here in Alaska. Used to fish for crappie in a small lake when I was stationed in Louisiana. Great fishing there certain times of the year and some delicious eating. My oldest had fun catching, too. It was her first experience fishing.
Greg, thank you for sharing your experience's in getting those summertime crappie to bite. Really enjoyed it. Had my wife watch it with me, we both learned some new techniques.
Loved the video. I'm an over the road truck driver and I hope that some day I can have you as a guide. Just heard you say a free video of the trip. Awesome! Will have to bring my wife and 13 yr old daughter.
I find and catch good size crappie using a shallow water crank bait on a Carolina rig. I troll different depths or slow role the bottom. One day I desided to think out side the box. It works incredibly well.
Hi Greg, My hats off to ya, great video! Thank you for all the time and effort, much appreciated. Your doing a fantastic job..... please keep up the good works! God bless....
the morning after the tsunami hit Phillippines on Christmas Eve, our building tiled a little toward the south along the east-west line going between the building and the pond. we all felt it. My dog felt it and began to growl. water everywhere carries that kind of jolt and it alarms the fish big time, no kidding. not only the impact, but the jostling coming up from the ground, and the sound of it travels underground in ways we do not hear but they do. Count on it. When fish stop biting, something very wrong somewhere.
thanks for the answer. I really would like to know more about that. I see people drive right on top of them and vertical jig, and some people hit the stump with the oar. If I drop something large in the water, my crappie is gone. If i get too close, my crappie is gone. If i yell to someone in another boat, my crappie is gone. I don't know why only my crappie gets spooked.
Great info I never tried to count down I'm going to have to try it this weekend. I'm going to subscribe and look forward to more tips. Thank you for the video.
Greg, you really have taught me something today. I will be using these techniques.Video very informative. but i would like to know what kind of minnow box did you have in the video?
Hello Greg... I really like your videos. Thank you for showing these four technics and the tips also. I mainly fish Lake Eufaula in Alabama. I've always fished with live minnows but this year I want to learn how to fish with hand tied jigs and plastic jigs. I have some on the way from Mr. Perry at Moonshine Crappie Jigs. I have been using a Mr. Crappie rod & reel and a 6.5' Berkley rig. I really like the action on the Mr. Crappie rod except it is a pretty short rod so I think I will get me one of the Mr. Crappie Slab King 10' rod. Thanks again for the videos. Lets go fishing!!!
I enjoy all your "how to videos" - very practical and informative information. You make it simple and easy to understand. You seem to fish brush piles that you put out. Any suggestions for best places to look for brush piles when you don't know where they are - for example if you were fishing a lake you had never fished, but wanted to fish brush pile(s)? Thanks for sharing!
Tim I live here in middle Ga as well. I have been fishing Sinclair a lot. but i'm thinking of going up to Oconee. You have any favorite coves you mind sharing?
This is ture BUT, it is the magnetic field around the earth that was interrupted when the earth quake hit. It may have been sound and vibration also. Good job!
Usually, but not always. As you can see on this video, the water was about 18' deep, but the brush came up within 9' from the top. You should be able to see where they are on your graph.
What do you think of crappie bites-nibbles(just a ? )im a big fan of yours just wandering I've never tried them and was considering maybe using them one day?????
Hi Greg We live on Lake Medina in Lakehills, Tx which is about 20 miles southeast of Bandera, Tx. The Lake was built in 1912 and for the most is a huge Rock Impoundment and very hilly. I saw where you said the north side of big trees and visible stumps and to look at points. My question is Do you have any suggestions where we might look and at what depth and I'd like to know what you charge and when we might come to go fishing with you.

I don't like to get right over the top of the brush pile if it's 6' or less down to the brush. I think the wave action from the Motorguide XI5 bothers them sometimes.
Oh, also, very informative video. I look forward to seeing more videos
Great video and thank you sir for the tips and suggestions

Don't you like it when people say things like, that is why I like the Xi5, a $2000 trolling motor
What size minnow cooler it that 7.5 or 13
7.5

I take a crappie every morning each one is a prize winner ( I eats allot )
very good tips new to fishing the south moved to nc. struggling a little thanks for the tips

Good info
How did you run your transducer cable on the xi5? Does it have built in so or? I just bought an xi3 and am rigging it on my Grizzly Tracker. Thanks
Transducer on the XI5 is built into the foot of the trolling motor. Thanks for watching!
with the straight line jig, or minnow where you using a weight above the bait?
About 18" above. For too reasons. One to get down quicker, and two to hold it a little straighter in the wind. Thanks for watching!
tell me about noise. What can spook them away?
Not nessesarily just the noise. I think sometimes the wave action from the Motorguide XI5 can spook them if they're fininky.
Thanks for watching!

I usually look at the end of long points. Also on the north side of any standing timber. Thanks for watching!
Tim I live here in middle Ga as well. I have been fishing Sinclair a lot. but i'm thinking of going up to Oconee. You have any favorite coves you mind sharing?
Thanks for the advise sir. I may get that way soon. I can't wait for some slabs.
Tim Brownlee I have looked for that area on the map I just can't find it.is it close to the Ritz?
Tim Brownlee do you have a Facebook? I'm going to the Lake this weekend for my birthday.

Your not the first fisherman I've heard that from elephant's in India with those big chains to hold em they broke em went to higher ground
On your straight rod fishing with a minnow, did you have a weight on the line about 12" above the hook? what size?
Excellent video, thank you. What weight line were you using? What size J hook? Could you list the different jigs you use also?
Thanks for your time on the videos. Im a crappie fanatic. May i ask what brand and size of reels you have on your rods?.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for watching! Mitchell 310C spinning reel
What Brand of crappie boat Do you have?
Good info. Do crappie go to deeper brush during the summer? Thanks for sharing.
Usually, but not always. As you can see on this video, the water was about 18' deep, but the brush came up within 9' from the top. You should be able to see where they are on your graph.
What do you think of crappie bites-nibbles(just a ? )im a big fan of yours just wandering I've never tried them and was considering maybe using them one day?????
I don't personally use them, but many swear by them. I keep a couple of jars in the boat for customers that ask for them. Thanks for watching!
Dude, there's a cougar sneaking up behind you!
I asked my uncle Si he says it's a black panther...

I just subscribed to this channel. Good video. Do you have a video on making brush piles?
Yes, it's called: "How to build a crappie hotel" ua-cam.com/video/o2SSm97L8fo/v-deo.html
Thanks for watching
Thanks!
Forgot to ask f you had any videos on tying knotts for hooks.
Yes, here it is. ua-cam.com/video/BT5e4VRc-V4/v-deo.html

Bopper stopper😉
Great video, as always. Thanks. One question: How shallow do you think is too shallow to sit the boat over the top of them?
I don't like to get right over the top of the brush pile if it's 6' or less down to the brush. I think the wave action from the Motorguide XI5 bothers them sometimes.
