Up and down with a weight, a bobber and a swimming minnow! Yep, crappie run out of their cover and bite!

AAPtravelnews-Gallatin, TN.-May 1st-Bob and Barb “On The Water Again.”  Fishing with writer buddies, just behind Johnny Cash’s burned down home.  Guide, Mark Travis fishes 4-crappie poles per angler and has some uniquely developed strategies to put crappie in his boat. GuideTravis says that the 1-ounce weight keep the line straight down, the bobber keeps the bait out of the brush-pile and crappie grab and run, so any movement on the bobber must be a quick response of lifting that rod straight up, most often with a hooked crappie in tow.
