hole for Crappie Fishing - What You Need To Be Successful!
A crappie hole is any place in any body of water, where there is a “hole” in the ground under shallow water. You will find crappie in some of the strangest places. Gators holes are often great crappie holes. The average gator will dig a hole 12ft by 12ft . They will also mound up dirt walls entangled with Lilly pad roots, which are excellent hiding places for crappie.
In other areas of the country, it may be a spot where a tree used to live(and was uprooted,or died years ago, leaving a “hole”)…or you could have natural holes in the shallow water with soft muddy bottoms caused by uneven surface … or air pockets under the muck.
If you are a avid crappie angler, you know these “crappie holes” hold crappie and you can catch an amazing batch of crappie in a very short period of time. Why? Because they offer protection to crappie… but not from you! Here’s what to do to catch crappie holes dry:
Step#1 Get out on the water before 6:30am. First find a hole that may hold crappie. Look close to the shore with 15-20 feet …. look among the lily pads look in extremely shallow water…
Step#2 rig your bait at 6 inches, and flip your line to the center of the crappie hole. Flip your line with your wrist so the boober makes a popping noise, but pop to hard you will loose your bait. The popping sound simulates a A fallen prey and drives any holding crappie nuts and into a feeding frenzy. They will hit your bait if they are there.
Step#3 Gently flick your wrists to keep the bobber “dancing”
Step#4 If you are not getting any bites, raise your bobber completely out of the water and let it drop,this creates a similar but different and louder noise that will attract the crappie.
Step#5 And if you still don’t get anything get your bait down 12 inches .. then pop the bobber a few times. Keep moving your bait down the line until you reach 2 feet under the surface, and keep popping the bobber.
