I can understand the thinking behind that as well. I can even see it occurring here in the Mid-Atlantic as well. There is a lot about crappie biology we really don't know. I love catching and eating crappies. I really wish they were more user friendly in smaller ponds. Unfortunately, they stunt badly even in bigger lakes in my area. Not many lakes in my area with decent sized crappie under 1000 acres. Maybe that is partly due to them be too successful at spawning in smaller BOW's and less successful in bigger BOW's?
