Learning again . Thanks. Waiting for things to cool down down here in the south... Still trying to catch those bass ... Love to crappie fish though .. Those are some Nice ones !!
Jimmy I have the Garmin LiveScope so you know how deep they are and can watch them move about your bait. Just loaded a video on catching fish from a stump in 14' of water and show the LiveScope screen. FLC
I would like that Boldo, I subscribe to his channel and watch his videos!! Never met him! Seems like he would be fun!! You have his number?? God Bless! jimmy
You Sir never cease to amaze me. Your knowledge base is so deep it is unreal. But more than that my respect for you as a man increases every day. Jimmy you make me want to be a better man, husband and believer. God Bless you.
Eight pound test is my favorite. You probably will get a few more bites on 6 or even 4 in the winter. Gonna lose a lot of baits and fish with the lighter line. Trilene XL is a good choice. May God Bless. jimmy
That’s one my Jimmy Houston Blaze series combos for 2020. They will be at Bass Pro, CABELAS and Walmart next year. I’m trying to get a few in before Christmas to sell on our website and give away a few!! Thanks a bunch, appreciate your comment! God Bless!! jimmy
Yes that was, Daniel, sometimes you get lucky!! Quite a few in there like that!! Let‘s try em sometime soon!! Your new boat is awesome and HOUSTON even released a fish!!! Love it!! I got you a couple Trailer hooks for your frogs, from Bass Pro!! God Bless! jimmy
Awesome video 👍I got a question I have about a three acre pond or small lake it’s got big bass and catfish and some decent bluegill it’s only about 12ft deep tho, with minimal cover, would it be feasible to introduce crappie? God bless Jimmy ❤️
That’s questionable I’m a three acre lake that is shallow, Trey! Might be hard to keep enough bait in there for em’ to eat and not overpopulate! When that happens, it stunts their growth!! Might pass on putting crappie in that lake!! Godspeed!! jimmy
Love me some crappie fishing! We have all natural lakes here. Same idea just on weed edges and clumps, they get around some of the deeper docks. Great tips, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Never thought about that one, Paul. I’ll ask my buddy, Wally Marshall. He may have that answer. If he does, I’ll tell it in a vid !! Thanks. Great question. Thanks. May God Bless!! jimmy
Crappie is excellent eating. I like them, better than bass. Like Catfish too Get that salt water fishing in your blood hard to get out Enough thing like it Spend all day long for 2 or 3 bass 4 hour of salt water got a boat full, a must to fish high tides! The school fish comes and goes with the tides. same with off shore. Dang i wish i can get away for the bull reds. Got to much to do
Sometimes I do, Anthony, but mostly if I’m using maribou in colder water! The loop knot will give your bait more action!! Great question!! God Bless! jimmy
What a beautiful sunset on your lake Jimmy, God is GOOD!!! And what are you feed'n those crappie???😲😁 I absolutely love your channel my friend, take care and God Bless. Jay.
I refreshed my wife how to do it tonight while I showed a young man how to catch bass on a light jig tonight... that crappie presentation is great on docks for kids... keep teaching... thank you Jimmy
Now that's what I call a fun, peaceful way to spend an evening! Love that beautiful crappie at the end! God has blessed you so greatly, and I pray He continurs to do so. I have no doubt He will. God bless yall!!
Mr Huston not to take away from your sups.will you please block my wife I was informed that I am taking her fishing in the morning. Love the videos bless you and family. Have a great week.
Crappie and bass on a vertical jig almost ALWAYS hit on the drop after jigging up...a minnow wounded, express energy and then kind of relaxes and sinks. That's when the predators pounce. Works. Salt or fresh water.. also bumping the tree knocks off algae which shad and other fish come to. Hit the tree, come back 5 minutes later after bumping another tree. Crappie bass and cats will be after the baitfish. You need to underwater drone, may improve your fishing. Keep em' commin
Jimmy I was reading some of the other comments I guess they didn’t realize that it works like fishing a worm the bass useally hit the worm on the way down. I’ve used your jogging it down instead of up and it works just like you said 👍👊
You got it, John, it does really work well. When you dip the rod tip down, the jig bounces. That’s what triggers the strike many times!! Thanks. God Bless!! jimmy
Thanks for sharing! I have been trying vertical jigging, recently. Your tips will always give me guidance and techniques to work on. Great video! What rod and reel are you using? Thanks again.
That’s our new Jimmy Houston Blaze series, Andrew, for 2020. They will be at Bass Pro, Cabelas, and Walmart early next year!! I’m trying to get a couple hundred in here before Christmas to sell on our website and give away a few!! God Bless! jimmy
Jimmy I’m from Ohio when I was like in my teens it wasn’t nothing to catch 9 to 12 inch crappies then it got bad most of the places in Ohio didn’t have a size limit and that just ruined the crappie fishing, they have a size limit now. I live in las Vegas now and I’m going over to lake Roosevelt in Arizona I heard they have nice size crappies there have you ever fish that lake 👍 on the vid P.S. need more crappie fishing videos to me they are the best eating fish in the world
I have not fished Roosevelt in many years. Fished a tv show there with Greg Hinds, a great tournament fisherman from that area!! You are correct, John, about the crappie size limit. It really helps the numbers and mostly the size in about any lake!! God Bless!! jimmy
Cool video jimmy, been watching you fish since I was a kid! I got some vertical jigging videos on my channel myself. Check em out if you get a chance and if you ever make to SC I’ll take you fishing!!!!
Hello Jimmy it's Bill how are you hope everything is fine I would like to say another fantastic video on crappie fishing it is really good to see but I'm not bass fishing or Bass Tournament Fishing I like to do a little crappie fishing on the side okay Jimmy I'll definitely talk to you soon take care love you too and the family God bless and God bless all

I would like that Boldo, I subscribe to his channel and watch his videos!! Never met him! Seems like he would be fun!! You have his number?? God Bless! jimmy
By far my favorite way to catch crappie
You Sir never cease to amaze me. Your knowledge base is so deep it is unreal. But more than that my respect for you as a man increases every day. Jimmy you make me want to be a better man, husband and believer. God Bless you.
That’s is so very kind of you. Brian, I have exactly those very same goals. Thanks a ton! God Bless!! jimmy

Always wondered how to spell Crappie in Cajun, Darrell. Thanks for the Southern education!! Lol. God Bless! jimmy
Great video! What line do you recommend?
Eight pound test is my favorite. You probably will get a few more bites on 6 or even 4 in the winter. Gonna lose a lot of baits and fish with the lighter line. Trilene XL is a good choice. May God Bless. jimmy
jimmy for president
A job I would not take! Too tuff for me and not enough fishing time!! God Bless!! jimmy
Seems God gave you a wonderful night to fish for crappie.. Water so calm, nothing like it..

Thanks so much, Tim, I really appreciate you! Been doing that fishin show 43 years and this is lots of fun also!! Thanks!! Godspeed! jimmy

That’s one my Jimmy Houston Blaze series combos for 2020. They will be at Bass Pro, CABELAS and Walmart next year. I’m trying to get a few in before Christmas to sell on our website and give away a few!! Thanks a bunch, appreciate your comment! God Bless!! jimmy
Had a old reservoir had a pump house and vertical jing was the best way to catch its tryed an true. Great lessons Jimmy! I love all you do.
Good technique, Tim!! Godspeed! jimmy
This is how my dad loved to fish. We spent many days catching crappie this way in the tops of old fallen trees. Brings back good memories. God Bless.
It’s a great way to catch em’, Jamey! Thanks! Godspeed!! jimmy
Love your tip on jigging down vs jigging up. Another one for the memory bank. Thanks Jimmy
Dang that was a big crappie at the end!
Yes that was, Daniel, sometimes you get lucky!! Quite a few in there like that!! Let‘s try em sometime soon!! Your new boat is awesome and HOUSTON even released a fish!!! Love it!! I got you a couple
Trailer hooks for your frogs, from Bass Pro!! God Bless! jimmy
Awesome video 👍I got a question I have about a three acre pond or small lake it’s got big bass and catfish and some decent bluegill it’s only about 12ft deep tho, with minimal cover, would it be feasible to introduce crappie? God bless Jimmy ❤️
That’s questionable I’m a three acre lake that is shallow, Trey! Might be hard to keep enough bait in there for em’ to eat and not overpopulate! When that happens, it stunts their growth!! Might pass on putting crappie in that lake!! Godspeed!! jimmy
My favorite way is to feather jig and pop it up and let it drop back down.
That works, Kelly, trying dipping your Rod tip with that jig and see if it works for you!! Godspeed! jimmy
My favorite technique in the book. My personal best was on the jigging up & down..
You got it, Corey!! Congrats!! Godspeed! jimmy
Love me some crappie fishing! We have all natural lakes here. Same idea just on weed edges and clumps, they get around some of the deeper docks. Great tips, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
You got it down pat!! Fillet em’!! Thanks. God Bless!! jimmy
I love jimmy and jesus
I’m learning Jimmy, I’m learning!!!!
We all are, Wendy!! God Bless!! jimmy
Should have taken Lucy! Lol
I slipped off without her. That’s hard to do! Godspeed!! jimmy
Back at you Jimmy. Enjoy the videos!
Q: After Crappie spawn is there a temperature they seek out where an angler can try to use to eliminate unproductive water?
Never thought about that one, Paul. I’ll ask my buddy, Wally Marshall. He may have that answer. If he does, I’ll tell it in a vid !! Thanks. Great question. Thanks. May God Bless!! jimmy
Crappie is excellent eating. I like them, better than bass. Like Catfish too Get that salt water fishing in your blood hard to get out Enough thing like it Spend all day long for 2 or 3 bass 4 hour of salt water got a boat full, a must to fish high tides!

If your too busy to go fishin, Bee, you’re just too busy!!! Johnny Morris. Bass Pro.
God Bless!! jimmy
Do you use a loop knot when vertical fishing Jimmy?
Sometimes I do, Anthony, but mostly if I’m using maribou in colder water! The loop knot will give your bait more action!! Great question!! God Bless! jimmy
Never heard of dipping down before. I have some old hollow stumps I have caught crappie out of. Going to have to try this technique.
Nice tip Jimmy
It really works, you will catch em’!! Thanks! Godspeed! jimmy
What a beautiful sunset on your lake Jimmy, God is GOOD!!!
And what are you feed'n those crappie???😲😁 I absolutely love your channel my friend, take care and God Bless. Jay.
We have shad, crawfish and bluegill in the lake for food!! It’s an awesome fishery! We work at it hard to keep it good!! God Bless!! jimmy
