Thanks guys!

By swimbait rod do you guys mean a crank bait rod? I dont know what a swim bait rod is.

Thanks for answering the question!

Make the video...sounds like you have doubters! Put it on youtube and post the link

Still looking. I think pretty much any 7 foot heavy rod would work. I'm even thinking about the extra heavy rods. I'll be using 65# braid. Would any baitcasting reel work?

I'm looking for a rod and reel for an Alabama rig. Any suggestions on how to get both for less than $100? Thanks!

I think I have shiners. So what size should I use if they are shiners?

I'm not sure what kind of minnows I'm buying. What kind are typically sold at boat shops here in SC? Thanks!

Do y'all buy small, medium or large minnows for crappie? Thanks guys!

I don't like Lunkerville. It's just boring...not sure why people watch that show. JMHO.

My house has an 8 acre pond behind it. We have lots of Geese come and go and of course they poop a LOT! Are geese good or bad for bass? I guess the only impact is all the poop they leave behind. Does it somehow help the bass or hurt them? Thanks!

Back to recipes....

Wow...nice boat!

What size hook....like a #2 alberdeen?

So what are you doing with milk if you freeze them in water? Thanks for the info!

Do you freeze them in milk or water, J Fancho?

The Ducket is the best rod you can buy int hat price range. I own several. I'm prtty rough on my rods and have only had 1 guide fail and it was swiftly replaced under warranty.

Nope...came from an 8 acre pond. I'm no expert but they all looked healthy to me. Didn't notice them being super skinny but not fat either.

Yeah, I have done some looking into baby bluegill on the internet and I think that's what I have. Would they be good to use as bait for crappie or bass???

We have no weeds in the pond and it's pretty clear/stained.

According to this site... http://www.fcps.edu/...ack_crappie.htm This is a young crappie...

I thought they bed in the spring not January....I could be wrong though. So you think they just hatched and are between 1 and 3 inches?

These things are waaay to small to be eating minnows....they are minnows themselves.

I've noticed in the pictures the fish just looks like a brown color. The camera isn't picking up the bluish/purple on the back and the vertical green stripes.

I tried to stretch the dorsal fin out in the pics attached. Ignore the grass near the mouth in one of the pics...
