Crappie Fishing Tips

• The Best Live Bait Setup: One of the best bait setups for crappie is to use a Number 6 hook, a small split shot, a live minnow and a slip bobber. The slip bobber will allow you to adjust for any depth while not sacrificing casting ability. Hook the minnow either through both lips or just behind the top dorsal fin.

• Fish the Right Depth. Crappie can usually be found between three and six feet of water. During the peak of summer, crappie will move to deeper areas and come out to the surface during dawn and dusk to feed.

• Keep the Line Tight. Crappie are known to have a soft lip. This means that they can tear easily and shake your hook if the line isn’t kept tight enough. Luckily, crappie will put up a good fight, so keeping your line tight shouldn’t be a difficult task.

• Don’t be in a Hurry. Crappie will give you more action if you are slow and steady with your jig and/or minnow. Try to avoid retrieving your cast too quickly. If you’re not getting any action and you know crappie are in the area, try slowing down.

and it was clear what I needed to do.” Davis left his manufacturing job to focus on his family and the business he started in his garage more than 30 years ago and has never regretted it. “My son has been a blessing to me,” he said. “He’s my best friend and my fishing partner. I know what happens to kids when they don’t get the time they need from their parents, and that’s why I encourage parents to go fishing with their kids. If they don’t like to fish, just spend some time with them.” A native of Sylacauga, Davis launched his bait company with the hand-crafted Shaky Worm and Shaky Worm Head. The worm itself is now available in 36 colors, and the heads are available in nine different designs and 14 colors. He incorporated Davis Industries in 1999 to produce lures for other companies. Both businesses operate in his facility on Third Street in Sylacauga.

46 Lakeside Living & Logan Martin Homes - March 2015 Lakeside Agent Spotlight Community is important to ERA King’s Kay McKinney.

Story by Buddy Roberts sUBMITTED PHOTO Community is important to ERA King’s Kay McKinney. “I love to be out in the community meeting new people and taking such a big step in their journey through life,” the Realtor said. “I love my job.” A member of the Pell City Civitan Club, currently serving as treasurer, McKinney works with children who have special needs and volunteers at the Colonel Robert L. Howard State Veterans Home in Pell City. “I involve my two daughters in that,” she said. “We try to make being involved in the community a family affair.” It’s the same with real estate. “My husband is a surveyor, so we’re able to work that hand-in- hand as sort of a family business. That way we can keep it together with the kids so they can be involved in that, too. It gives us a lot of flexibility so that we can work wherever we are, even if we’re out of town.” McKinney is a native of Lincoln. “I have lived in this area all my life. I know this community very well. I have said many times that this job is ideal for my personality. I can meet new wonderful people. I love to negotiate on my clients’ behalf to get the best deal. My priority to them is excellent service, with creative service in every detail of the real estate transaction.” A member of the National Association of Realtors and the Birmingham Association of Realtors, she believes the real estate market is picking up, especially properties on Logan Martin Lake. “The lake properties are definitely desirable, and they are really picking up. If there is anything I could say, it’s that we need more inventory. If anybody is on the fence about putting their home on the market, now is a great time to do it. “For sellers, I can offer fresh ideas for working through all the steps of the process: staging the home, planning strategies to sell the house, finding the next place that you can call home. Both buying and selling can be very stressful.” McKinney said she subscribes to a philosophy aimed at making the process as stress-free as possible. “I am a true believer in the Golden Rule. I will work to guide buyers through the entire process and help them find just the right home within their financial comfort zone. I do not believe in Kay McKinney going above what you can afford and eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches every night.”
