Thanks for the file.
Question, what 3 lures would you pick for crappie.

First would be small tube jigs or curly tails...1 1/2" to 2"...white or chartreuse depending on the water and water temp and clarity.  Blue and clear sparkle is also a great color combo.  See pics.

Second would be small marabou jigs...same colors.  Ditto for Gulp Minnows...2" - 3"

Third would be small crankbaits...2"...trolled or cast and retrieved.  Black and silver or blue and silver.

But crappies also are good candidates for the flyrod...with a sinktip or slow sink line...fished about mid depth in 12 to 15 feet of water.  Except when they are in close to cover for spawning.  Then go shallower.
