Smallie Beavers on a shakey head are a fantastic, often overlooked option for clear, rocky lakes like Table Rock.

A pitboss or sweet beaver will get through the reed a lot better than a lizard. Try pitching those. Also try a hallow-belly frog.

You could buy an different brand of jig. I recommend Revenge and Buckeye jigs; never had a skirt slip off either of them.

A straight shank with my line snelled to the hook is the only way I'll flip/pitch plastics.

I like the Bite-Me brand jigs and use 3/32 oz for shallow water. As for baits, any plastic will do, but the two I use the most are 5" Berkley Shakey worms and RI Smallie beavers.

I have used the smallie beaver quiet a bit lately with much success. I got them in Magic Craw Swirl and California 420.

About 8 or 10 years ago we absolutely slayed the crappie on Cedar Lake. probably caught close to 100 fish between the two of us in one afternoon. I have only fished it a couple of time recently so I don't know if the crappie fish is still that great. I plan on checking it out this weekend.

Finally tagged my little 10' boat and got it out to Miami SFL last Sunday. Had a good day despite the high winds. Caught about 20 fish between 10 - 18 inches. Most came on crankbaits, but got one on a spinnerbait and a few of plastics. I plan to go to Cedar Lake in Olathe this weekend!

For me: Daybreak = Buzzbait

I'm the exact opposite, the Invis-x is too stretchy.

Sounds like my little city lake I fish fairly often. I catch all my fish in that pond in 6'' to 3' of water not 5 feet from the bank of the chunk rock dam. The fish are up there feeding on craws and small gills. Most of the fish are 12" to 16" but I did catch one that went 21". I always make long cast parallel to the bank, best baits have been small jigs and senkos.

I have only fished Lenexa one time, the first spring it was open. Caught one that was just shy of 4lbs.

Nope......doesn't work at all............. :o :

Can't go wrong with straight brown!

This is what I was going to say ! ;D The Shimano Citia is another option if you want to save some cash.......
