I was fishing at my neighbor's pond today, throwing an x-rap since a cold front came through today. Fish were knocking the crap outta my bait on the pause but I wasn't hooking up, I got excited thinking the bass were schooled up where I was fishing. WRONG! I finally hooked a few of them, and they ended up being crappies...Still fun but I left them to go look for bass. I may go back with a spinning rod and a little x-rap to put a hurting on them though!

I probably catch more crappies each year on a jerkbait while fishing for bass than anything else. Once I catch a few I usually switch to a 65 Pointer and really put it to them! You can catch some real slabs on a full sized jerkbait though.

That one on the power plant lake too?

Nope, just a neighborhood pond the first week of January a few years ago.

I have a similar experience throwing traps.
