Use your electronics to locate the fish, they will look like a Christmas Tree on your normal 2D sonar. Look over soft bottom areas in about 30' of water. I like to tie my mono to the braid giving about 5' of mono and putting the snap swivel on the bait. Jig above them slowly and when you feel them bite give a second before you set the hook. Good Luck

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!
