    Default Crappie Fishing Hartwell

    Recently purchased a small boat, looking to get into crappie fishing around Lake Hartwell, I've got a 15 Foot Deep V Jon Boat I'll be restoring and doing a custom build on. It's equipped with a Garmin Echo 200, Minn Kota trolling motor and a 5Hp Evinrude. Not asking for spots, What kind of rigs do I need to be fishing, Slip corks and minnows or Jigs. What do I need to be fishing i.e. Brush Piles, Docks, or whatever ? Any help is appreciated. Also if anyone has builds for a bait Jon boat bait tank shoot me a pm

    20-30ft on brush piles right now. Minnows or jigs. Your choice. I prefer live bait this time of year personally

    Update - We went today and marked a lot of fish, Caught 1 hybrid so I'm guessing that is what we were marking. We are planning to go back in the morning with medium minnows and drop some down rods on them and see what happens. Thanks for all the help guys !
