going to try to make it to spring camp this year. may get to see some of the old gang, and meet some new crazy people.

I used to be one of those fisherman who was always in pursuit of 3 plus pound crappie. Now days, I agree with you Beagle. I prefer 10-12 inch crappie for table fare. We are hoping to make it to Truman the first weekend in May. Hope to see you there

I didn't use that last bunch you brought me so I'm good!

Have to agree with you on the baked or grilled in aluminum foil pouch crappie! I just hope the weather cooperates. Be good to see folks again.

we sometimes use butter, garlic, all purpose seasoning, in iron skillet, cook hot and fast, great flavor, they come out firm, and flaky at the same time. good eating.
