Crappie are generally unsuitable in impoundments less than 25 to 30 acres. They spawn earlier than bassor bluegills plus have the same hinged jaw of a bass. The result is that when the bass and bluegills spawn/hatch hungry young crappies are there waiting on them.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
