I live in Punta Gorda, Fla., and fish on the many shallow(2-6 ft), small lakes for Crappie. There is often little to no sizable cover, some grass, some small brush areas. They are retention ponds/lakes, and are typically bowl shaped in cross section. Canals enter and leave some of the lakes which are filled with big/medium, and aggressive young bass, and nice/slab crappie. How and when would you fish these lakes from a jon boat w/a trolling motor? What baits would you use, and best time/s of year to be on the water, pre and post span?. I do well but could do better with some expert advice and counsel. A retired doctor would like some detailed help here!!! Many thanks, Paul Dow Dawson

Hi, I live out in seattle washington and tournament walleye fish. About 5 monthes ago I attended a national tournament in which walleye guys were using crappie rods as their second rod or “dead stick”. Nobody wanted to disclose info about which rods so now that my tournament season is over I have begun my search to find out what rods I should be trying out. I think it may be what crappie guys use as spider rods. What I am looking for is 10 to 12 foot rod with fast action (sensitive tip) but can handle up to 4 ouce weight trolled up to 2 mph. Since currently this is an experiment I am trying to find inexpensive rods. (maybe you are upgrading and have a rod or two I could be very cheap) Any suggestions you have would be appreciated. Thanks Brian
