Location: Ludington, MI		Looking for a glidebait that will imitate crappies. I'd like a nice finish and a drop-belly type profile with the ability to work as deep as 6-8 feet on retrieve.

Any suggestions?

Location: Ludington, MI		Yes, crappies just sit around a lot of the time, so maybe no lure really imitates them but I'd like to try the color scheme on a glider. I would guess a Bondy would be the best imitator in the winter, but I want a summer over-the-weeds lure.

^^ Yep, They are deeper running gliders. And work great.

I got this one from John Snow before I had my shoulder replacement. Has a great gliding action by simply reeling. Hard to find though. John

Twisted Suckers are really good. Also look at the Rove by Waterbeast tackle.

I make a couple versions of a crappie glider. The little one on the bottom is new, I just made that one, and am testing it. So far so good.

Location: Ludington, MI		I've had good luck with keeping images upright by just doing a crop and re-saving, even if you don't actually re-size at all. I'm PM'ing you about those lures.

+1

There are a ton of crappie where I fish and these work. I've had better luck with the black crappie pattern than the white crappie pattern.
