I'm fairly new to livescope so help me out. What do you do to entice the crappie that just stare at the bait but won't eat it? Some days you can hold it on them indefinitely and they won't hit. You can slowly take it away and they'll chase but not hit. I bought some crappie nibbles to try on my jigs but not very optimistic. Any tips?
 
The best luck I have had is when they are doing that just start reeling slow and steady and do not stop.
I have had them follow it up 10+ feet then hit it on the surface.
With that being said contrary to what some believe sometimes they just will not bite.
 
Last time I went I pulled up to a big piece of structure that holds a lot of fish. Dropped a jig down using a long rod and couldn't get a bite. They would just come up and look at the jig. I picked up a casting rod with the same jig tied on and started reeling it through em and ended up catching 15 keepers in short time. When a fish would react Id started reeling faster. Some would follow it back to the boat and hit it with only 10ft of line left in the water. This time of year when they react to your bait speed up your retrieve and never slow down or stop cause it's over if you do.
 
Bait pop is the ticket...
im working on my own formulation which is waiting on a patent. im gonna call it "tube poo" and ill have a spray on formula called "bream piss". guaranteed to catch fish. should be ready next year from Know It All Fishing (tm). price should be around $29.99 for a 1 oz tube, buy 12 get 1 free.

Very prominent fisherman in New Johnsonville loves it. Just saw a video from him using it to flip bushes. Like a scent trial is going to help when you flip a 1/2 ounce weight on top of a bass' head in 1.5 foot of water. I thought it was for livescope? Just thought it was an odd promotional video for that product haha

yeah ol sam. he is a good un. used to be one of the most hated jackasses on the lake.
 
seriously though, ive been in love with berkley gulp products for years for an extra bite and more than not to get bites, especially with panfish. its water soluable amino acids which has been proven is about the only scent type that actually works in the water. petroleum based products dont work. the 1" minnow or waxie both in chartreuse. ive never tried any other color except pink for bluegill. (i can never find it)

combine that with different retrieve rates and presentation angles. if they dont eat move on to the next.
