i went to brewer last year and didnt catch an crappie but tore the catfish up in 2 to 4 ft of water,, that was fun on ultralight equip, brewer looks beautiful for crappie though, i might have to try it again, i do quite abit of bass fishin on maumelle, my wife caught a 2 1/2 to 3lb crappie on maumelle a couple of years ago, thats the only crappie weve caught there,,
