Illinois Crappie Fishing
Crappie fishing in Illinois is not always something that people think about when they're fishing the Midwest. However, if the bass aren't biting - take a look around and see if you can see any signs that tell you it might be time to switch gears and do a little bit of crappie fishing.
On this afternoon I only had an hour to fish, and I started with a jerkbait. I was hunting Illinois largemouth... but... 30 minutes and zero fish later, I realized that I had been seeing panfish and crappie up in the super-shallow rip rap. Fortunately, I always have a Mule Jig with some Donkey Tails on me for just such an occasion. These are small swimbait style lures that have a bunch of cool little features that I talk about in this comprehensive review:
Long story shore, we took a tough day of fishing that could have ended poorly, and turned it into one heck of a (short and intense) afternoon!
