How to Catch Crappie at Night!

Описание: On this episode, our friend Brad... not Brad... but Brad... joins us and teaches us how he slays crappie at night. There is also a surprise catch before the night ends! You have to be ready for anything!

Experience the excitement of night fishing for crappie on Lake Lanier with the Practical Outdoorsman! In this action-packed episode, Brad , the other Brad, aka “the nighttime crappie slayer” joins us to reveal his proven techniques for catching crappie after dark. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or new to night fishing, you’ll learn expert strategies for locating and landing slab crappie-including the gear, bait, and secret moves that make all the difference.

We kick off with sunset fishing and quickly get on the fish using live minnows under bobbers, jigs, and glow sticks for easy bite detection. Brad shares his unique approach: when the bite slows, simply lift anchor and move 20 feet. This simple adjustment keeps the action going all night long. Watch as we land crappie after crappie, experiment with double jig rigs, and compare the effectiveness of live bait vs. artificial lures.

But the surprises don’t stop there -a bonus striper puts our light tackle to the test, delivering a memorable fight and a highlight of the evening. Throughout the trip, you’ll get practical tips on rigging minnows, choosing the right jig colors, and maximizing your hookup ratio. Plus, we break down our location strategy so you can adapt these night fishing techniques to your own home waters.
