Big Pond ;

Look at this thread from about a mth. ago on crappie ponds. It has a ton of info including white vs black crappie. Don't forget that there are hybrid crappie (black x white mix)which may have some advantages (less reproduction).

The choice will be influnced by your goals and pond characteristics.

I forgot to add these to links to crappie summaries from Fishbase :
