For now, I'd keep every crappie you catch. I don't think you will put a large dent in the population for a while. I would manage them just like you did with the LMB, keep yanking them out until you see them increase in size. Or, keep every one that you catch that's under a certain size, like you did with the LMB, say every one under 10".

You've done a heck of a job turning the pond around. Congrats!!
