Kabetogama Lake (MN)
Kail’s Fishing Reports reported catching Crappie using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20+') technique and St. Croix Panfish Series Spinning Rods on Kabetogama Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fall is one of the best times for Crappie, use your electronics to locate a 30’ deep soft bottom basin. Drop to the bottom and reel up just above the fish and start working you jigging rap slowly. Watch how they react to your bait, you may want to tip the treble hook with a minnow head. If they don’t hit right away try playing keep away by raising your bait and trying to make them follow you. I like to use fireline with a short piece of mono with a swivel or tie the mono directly to the braid. Good Luck! "

Reported by
Catawba Tuna
Lake Erie
Catawba Tuna reported catching Yellow Perch using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20+') technique and St. Croix Panfish Series Spinning Rods on Lake Erie. Additional comments from this report: "Perch bite was very light on that day. The sensitivity in the St. Croix PFS70LXF was key in detecting the bite or subtle change in feel of the bait. The perch were keying in on rock piles adjacent to the deepest break line before the mud basin. Used baits on a tandem hand tied double spreader type rig with a heavier main weight on the bottom of the rig being a 3/8 oz bell sinker."
Jenko Double Down BFS Casting Rod
$129.99

Reported by
Niko Kitsinis
Brookville Lake (IN)
Niko Kitsinis reported catching Crappie using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20+') technique and Jenko Double Down BFS Casting Rod on Brookville Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Found some schools of crappie hanging on timber in 25-40’ of water. The Bobby Garland rig with two different jig sizes seems to always work in this part of the country. Really heavy winds made it hard to stay on them in the kayak so it was a short trip. Got my first one of 2023 over 14”! That is a quality fish for around here. When I was able to stay on them they were ready to feed. If they are not smashing it, hit them in the nose with it and lift as slowly as you can. They like to chase it up. "

Use your electronics to stay above the school and keep bouncing the jig a foot or two off the bottom.You can tie the mono to the braid and use a snap swivel the attach the jig to your line or use a short piece of mono about 3 feet long to attach to the braid to the mono and then tie to the jig Good luck!"
