Fishing With Minnows
There are just hundreds of minnow rigging methods when fishing with live minnows. You can put a minnow under a fixed depth cork, You can troll them with special rigging, or you can fish them stationary tightlight with very small, or no weight, or use a jig tipped with a minnow, and you can also use minnow rigging that fishes two or more minnows in tandem. Actually there are endless ways to hook a minnow for crappie, just use your imagination.
Some effective rigging for crappie will be discussed in some detail in the following paragraphs. Lets first discuss some basics that need to be understood on how to hook a minnow for crappie. Your first priority is to focus on not injuring the minnow before you put it under hook into the water. For example, you want to use a long shank hook style, so the minnow will slide on the hook and limit its chances of injuring it’s self when wiggling around. Long shank hooks are also useful when you extract a hook out of a fish’s mouth because they limit the chances of injury. Several sizes and styles can be used to hook a minnow for crappie, but the gold Aberdeen hooks are traditional favorites. You need to pick a hook size for your crappie rigging that is proportional to the size of the minnows you intend to fish with. A no. 4 to no. 1 Aberdeen style should be used to hook a small to medium sized minnow. Now if you are after large slabs, then you need to change your hook size to a 1/0 to 2/0 Aberdeen style hook when rigging for crappie, and also use a larger 2 to 3 inch long minnow.
Don’t overlook details, make sure you watch with care how you are hooking your minnows and always keep your bait fresh.There are many methods that fisherman use to hook minnows, but one of the most common ways that is used to hook a minnow for crappie is called the limp hook method. This method is simple to do. Run the hook starting a the bottom of the lip, up through the bottom and top lip. Make sure the minnow slides easily on the hook and the barb of the hook is exposed. The limp hook method is often used for still fishing, but many anglers us it for trolling and casting also. Many anglers also hook their minnow through the back dorsal fin when still fishing and the method of crappie rigging works well too.
Rigging For Crappie Tip:
When crappies seem skittish, fish the outer edge of cover with no bobber on your minnow rigging. Without any weight except that of the hook and the minnow and a small split shot a minnow will sink very slowly. Twisting moving around enticing the skittish fish. Crappie’s have a rough time passing up a easy meal.
Well that concludes my article about threadfin shad. Have a great day!
