Thank you for your comments.

BreamBugs , well it was in my aunts small lake and I noticed that something was hitting bugs on the surface and I took advice from my aunt . and she told me to keep many different colored crafting fuzzballs in my box and and a small pair of scissors and to take a tiny piece of each color and toss it in the water and see how the minnows and fishes react to it ….that day it black . so I chose a black dry fly and used a 6 pound tippet and it was game on ! I am no professional fly fisher by any means but it was so fun !

Thank you for your reply. Would you mind sharing your technique for fly fishing for crappie?

Yes, use a very small amount of weight, you don’t need to get too deep. Sometimes you just have to experiment to find what the depth is that the crappie are moving through.
