If you’re an avid crappie fisherman, you know that early-season fishing can be a challenge. As the water temperatures start to warm up and the crappie begin to move into shallower waters, it can be tough to find the right bait to attract these elusive fish. That’s where the Delong Medium Tadpole comes in. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at why the Delong Medium Tadpole is the best lure for early-season crappie.

Why the Tadpole is Effective for Early-Season Crappie Fishing

  • The lure is designed to mimic the natural movements of a tadpole, which is a primary food source for crappie during the early season.
  • Its small size and lifelike appearance make it a perfect bait for crappie fishing in shallow waters, where the fish are more likely to be found early in the season.
  • The lure is made with high-quality materials and features a durable construction that can withstand the rigors of early-season fishing.

How to Fish with the Delong Medium Tadpole

  • The Delong Medium Tadpole can be fished using a variety of techniques.
  • When casting, try to land the lure close to brush piles, submerged timber, or other structures where crappie are likely to be hiding.
  • During the retrieve give the rod a series of quick pops, this will cause the tadpole to dart through the water mimicking a tadpole.

Tips for Using the Delong Medium Tadpole in Early-Season Crappie Fishing

  • Use a light fishing line when fishing with the tadpole to create a more natural presentation.
  • Experiment with different colors to find the one that works best in the particular water conditions you are fishing in. We have found lures with lots of bright shiny fleck work great on sunny days.
  • Fish during low-light conditions, such as early morning or late evening, when crappie are more active and likely to be feeding.

If you want to catch more crappie during the early season, the Delong Medium Tadpole is the lure for you. Its lifelike appearance and realistic swimming action make it the perfect bait for crappie fishing in shallow waters. With these tips and techniques, you’ll be sure to hook more crappie this season than ever before.
