What pound lines should I use for fishing crappies & white bass?
♂♂ Daoie! asked:
I’ve been an avid fisher, but I’ve never known what lines are exactly the best lines to use for each. And what type of baits would I be guaranteed more bites?

6 lb test is about average .hope you fill your stringer. i like jigs .

6 pound is a real good choice, but 4 pound will give you a little extra casting distance and they won’t be able to see it as much

For crappie and white bass, i would use between 4-6 lb. mono. Trilene is the best casting mono I have found so far. Works great for the white bass, crappie, bluegill, etc.
For the bait, try wax worms or live minnows.
Happy fishing.

I use 4lb test on crappies all the time with a jig and sometimes a slip bobber. Lately I have had great success with a berkley gulp 2inch minnow in char truce or water mellon

For crappie, 4 pound test. No more than 6. Live shiners, minnows or shad would probably be best.
