We caught most of our crappies using livescope and a snap jig! we would scan around with Garmin livescope for brush piles that were in the 25-foot range and once we found the fish we would drop down our jigs and slowly jig it until the fish would bite, easy peasy!

  Shad
We started off the day speed cranking but we didn't get any bites so we switched to a Megabass swimbait and a Yum flash mob jr A-rig, and we ended up catching our first fish at 1:19pm it was a 3.48 lb largemouth bass off of a dock ladder! The fish we saw were mainly around isolated wood structures around points, we had a couple of bass including one around 7 lbs bite the A-rig but we could never land the fish due to too small of swimbait jig heads!
