Re: [VFB] Crappie Time

I love them. It is not quite time for them here in MD but I can't wait. They like yellow and red for some reason. I most often use a black nose dance (size 8, 10 or 12) ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 11:59 AM Subject: [VFB] Crappie Time The dogwoods are starting to bloom here in SC, which can mean only one thing, CRAPPIE TIME !!!!!      I have never gone for crappie on a fly (intentionally, have caught a few while bream fishing). Any suggestions on gear, leaders, flies, ect.....      I plan on using a 5 wt that I bought as a set just the other week for $20.00. Its a med. action Shakespeare, nice rod great reel, for the price. No drag though, but it does have an exposed rim for drag control, and is all aluminum for strength. I got a WF5F line on it. I got a few sink tips and some 7-9 ft leaders.      I am open for any advice.      Delbert (Del) Roberts   Belton, South Carolina, USA ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
