Long Lining 101 with Rod Wall

03/06/2013

It seems all the rage these days that crappie anglers from the East Coast are wanting to learn how to tight line for crappie while anglers in the Mid-West are scouring for information about long lining for crappie. Long lining for crappie originated around the clear water impoundments of North and South Carolina by anglers who wanted to catch suspended fish that were easily spooked by a passing boat. Pre-spawn and post-spawn black crappie are notorious for their propensity to suspend while white crappie don’t need a reason. Needless to say, long lining has become a terrific way to catch any and all of these fish.
