Fall is one of the best times for Crappie, use your electronics to locate a 30’ deep soft bottom basin. Drop to the bottom, bang thr Jigging Rap a few times on the bottom to attract attention and reel up just above the fish and start working you jigging rap slowly. Watch how they react to your bait, you should be able to watch on your normal 2D sonar or down imaging. 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!
