    My aunt lives in Ligoner and I have fished a lot of the lakes around that area.Your best bet for crappie is probably Lake Wawasee.A lot of pleasure boaters through the day,but if you can fish it at night it can produce very well.

    Is that the Shoe lake just west of N. Webester? If that's the right area I have friends who have been catching good crappie on Little Barbee.

    what's wrong with Potato Creek?
    Roaming the banks of the Kankakee River and anywhere else fish might lurk.

    Potato Creek is having some issues as far as Crappie fishing goes. They stopped stocking crappie fry a couple years ago and introduced wipers. That couple with people keeping 7 and 8 inch fish has pretty much ruined the lake for consistent quality crappie fishing IMO.
    Taking a kid fishing makes the world a better place one memory at a time.
