Crappie Honeyhole: Catch your limit everyday!

Where you find structure you will find crappie. What most fisherman don't know is you can manufacture your on crappie fishing structure. After you sink your structure keep it private. It can be your very own secret crappie honey hole for years to come. The best brush I have ever used is the limbs cut from a Willow tree. These limbs have multiple branches that are perfect for little crappie fry to hide. make sure you cuttings are least 3 foot in length and have from 7 to 10 branch's minimum. To sink your willow branch crappie structure, or any other structure you plan to use, I recommend you use a two section cement block. Put your branches inside the cement block openings and secure with a light weight chain or a small gauge wire (something smaller then the dia. of a coat hanger). Crappie are just like bass they like to sit in cover structure and wait for their prey.

If you want to get a early start creating your "crappie honey hole" get your structure together in the fall and sink it. The advantage of doing this The best time to create your crappie honey hole is in the fall and very early spring (right after ice out).

For best results create your crappie brush farms in three different depth locations. Mark your locations to sink brush in the shallows, mid depth locations, and deeper water. Make sure you find a spot that is not easily fished. Make sure you drop your brush when no fisherman are watching. If your honey hole gets a lot of fishing pressure the crappie may move out to other fishing locations. I always look for places that would not interest casual boaters. You are probably asking why? Well by using three different locations you create crappie honey holes for different parts of the fishing season. I you can find a spot where the bottom starts deep and gradually goes to shallows you can build your three locations inline. Just mark each location with a GPS point, that way you can come back again and again without wasting any precious fishing time. If you have young children this is an excellent way to get them interested in fishing. Kids are impatient, but if you take them to a honey hole where the action is almost instant, you will nurture their interest in a wonderful sport.

This technique will work no matter where you are located at. Crappie love brush and structure as their habitat no mater what part of the country you live in. Make sure you check with your local laws to find out what is legal to sink for structure.

One more point I want to address. Make sure you check with your states regulations for placing objects in your fishing area. If you are ready to catch a regular batch of crappie whenever you go out fishing then get out and create your crappie honey hole now! Good luck with your fishing see you later.
