When it comes to catching crappies, most people think about grabbing some live bait and soaking it below a bobber. And swim jigs are a great alternative for catching slabs with artificials. In this video, Al Lindner and Jeremy Smith use some of their favorite soft baits that often outperform live bait. VMC offers a full lineup of crappie jigs in many different molds, colors, and sizes. Adding soft plastics, like from Big Bite Baits, gives you the one-two punch when crappie fishing. No need to mess with live bait!
