This year I have only taken out about 25 crappie.
Think I may have decimated the population.
Wierd weather may have also kept them from a successful spawn.
I thought the same thing except this spring I watched the BG attack and eat the eggs. They did the same thing to the bass .... I can’t catch any crappie now I think due to BG and LMB eating the 8” BCP
By fishing hard I caught 8 smallish crappie over the last couple days and lost a couple more when landing. Still a few crappie in the pond but I am making an impact.
Also caught my first decent bass this year - nice 4.5 lb one on a small chatter bait.
