Listen to what TJ says re crappie.

Lusk says that over 95% of the eggs laid will not result in a one year old fish. They get eaten. But the crappie spawn earlier and become an apex predator of other species. That’s why they are not a good idea in ponds of less than 20 to 25 acres.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
