Rookie question.
Where do crappie fit in from an anglers perspective? I.E. do they bite in different seasons than for instance BG? Fight harder?
What is the reason for having them in the pond in addition to or over another species.
I know there are quite a lot of crappie in my area, but just wondered why a pond owner might want them?
I should have said rookie questions.
Crappie are a beautiful fish and are considered one of the best tasting freshwater fish. They also tend to bite better in the cold and can help extend a fishing season.
Crappie are considered very difficult to manage in small body's of water and are prone to overpopulating and stunting. They also compete with juvenile LMB for food.
