White bucket update

Finally got to get out for the first time this year. And, first time to ever try spider rigging.  Caught 6 total but only 2 keeper sized.  Probably missed another 5 from being slow on the draw or just not recognizing a bite!  I think half of northwest Arkansas was on the lake today.  Tons of traffic!

Yes...  They been biting light the past couple trips.  Got to watch that line more than tips.   Good light rod tips help a lot.  If you really get into it I’ld suggest BnM BGJP.  16ft length too.  Get them baits away from the boat.  

Like anything else the more you fish this method the better you’ll get. It takes a lot of water time

 Learn how they seasonally migrate.  Learn how white crappie relate seasonally....  Time, patience and be persistent with it.  You’ll get it.

Yes...  Boat traffic just part of it this time of year...  There’s only one spring 😂
