[QUOTE="wasilvers, post: 224874, member: 1776"] I just toss these out behind the boat (20-25 yards?) and put the trolling motor on 4 (they vibrate like crazy) and pull it alongside deeper structure (breaks, docks etc) in the summer. In WI, we can only use 2 rods, so I put a rod on each side of the boat. When you pass over fish on the finder, usually you will pick one up. These baits are small enough, even if they are gills, you will catch them. It has worked every day but yesterday. :roll: But 2 of us were even using live bait and caught only one perch and one crappie yesterday. They seem to get deep enough to catch fish most times... I've never used a weight with them. I tried 'pushing' them once, but didn't have much luck with it after 15 minutes. Please read all this with this caveat-I just started fishing for crappie this year - been a bass fisherman my whole life prior. Basically I go for crappie where I'd fish for bass. [/QUOTE]
