In addition to the fuzzy yellow jig posted above, I use an assortment of small tube jigs. I always take at least 2 dozen colors out with me, and start fishing with a couple different colors on each pole. Eventually I find the color they like (it varies!). Some days, they just won't touch those fuzzy yellow jigs, but they'll go nuts for a purple with red flecks. Other days, they won't touch either and will only hit on some other color or color combination. They're pretty cheap (about 20 cents for the jig head and 10 cents for each tube). I prefer them over minnows for the sake of speed. When you find a school that's hitting really good, it helps to be hooking up with 2 crappies at a time and being able to cast out within seconds of retrieving them.

Did you ever get your fish(walleye, wasn't it) back from getting mounted?

Heyy, thanks for reminding me. Time for yet another phone call. Maybe I'll even swing by. It's about 20 miles out of my way, but possibly worth the trip.
