The crappie sure are stacked up right now around my newly placed brush piles. I could have likely caught 100 crappie probably 80% in the 12-17 inch range. Huge crappie. About as good a crappie bite as is possible as it is just one after another of huge crappie.
I'm inviting some kids out next weekend to help me catch a mess of them and am wondering how many I should take out.
What's crazy is somehow this 10 acre pond without any management is pretty well balanced. The bass, crappie and bluegill are all fat healthy and plentiful. I worry I'm going to do more harm than good by taking out a bunch of small bass and big crappie and almost wonder if I should just use bigger baits if I want to get around catching so many small bass and not worry about it too much.
