I definitely know what you mean about the feel of the fish. I can almost always tell whether I have a bluegill on or a crappie. They feel a lot different for sure!David Knapphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12480485571834164857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32835299.post-25230292021791950922013-03-23T10:59:24.098-05:002013-03-23T10:59:24.098-05:00Mark, I'm a believer in that fly now.

They will still catch a bunch of fish for me sometime this year though!

Sometimes they get brought in ponds in the form of eggs on Cranes legs. For me there is a difference in the feel of a crappie and bluegill on the fly rod, more darting with the bluegill.

I had a BIG crappie come out and nail a buzz bait (yep, used to spin fish) just like a bass. One of the craziest things I have ever seen.

I absolutely love chasing Bluegill and Crappie or Perch for that matter. Like you, I have to adjust my thinking now that I live in Colorado and see if I can find some willing Panfish!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32835299.post-1133553760984788042013-03-20T12:14:18.487-05:002013-03-20T12:14:18.487-05:00Crappie are really fun with a fly rod.
