In my 6 acre pond with 1 acre flooded timber in inlet end of pond I need to know how deep to sink cedars/brush piles for crappie habitat in summer and winter. Seems as tho there are less and less crappie that I�m catching. Will brush piles help the YOY survival (if there is any). I don�t see any signs of young BCP after the first spawn the year that they were stocked (year 5). The crappie that I was catching running 8-11� but never have caught any small 4-6� since the first year. Any insights on what to do to change the population?
Any help would be appreciated
