Locating a school of crappies in a lake can lead to some fast fishing fun. Crappies are a pan fish which are abundant in many lake areas. They are easily identified by the proliferation of black spots on their bodies. The month of May is an especially good month to catch them since they are spawning in the shallows. My favorite lures include one thirty-second ounce jigs and darts.. Red and white is a good color combination. Another good bet is twister type lures. These have a replaceable lead head and a replaceable plastic body. Purple and black twisters work best in murky water while yellow ranks number one in clear water. A productive way to fish for crappies is with ultra-light spinning equipment. Place a small bobber from two to four feet above the jig or Sports shorts A coed racquetball tournament is scheduled for Monday through Thursday, May 21-24.

The fish will generally hook themselves so there is no need to set the hook after a strike. Crappies have a soft, paper-thin mouth, so don’t try to horse them in. For those of you who are live bait fans, minnows are an excellent choice. Hook them through the lips on a #4 hook and suspend them about three feet below a float. Wait until the crappie has the minnow in his mouth for a few seconds before setting the hook. One of the state’s crappie hot spots is located nearby in Pinchot Lake at Gifford Pinchot State Park. The majority of the fish there average six to nine inches long, but what they lack in size they make up in quantity. Pinchot Lake is located near Rossville, York County.
