I have seen the evidence and I would rule that the Golden Crappie do exist in the wild. Now if we can get Matt to get a Gov't Grant and start a Golden Crappie hatchery to raise to a stocking size and stock in Arkansas Waters That would be just Great!!! I know wishful thinking.. but would it not be cool to get on here and say "Report Caught a nice mess of Gold'ens today with a picture" HAHA!!!
