My name is , Darin. I have a Bass Tracker with a 40ph Mercury. Also I just bought an installed a Garmin ECHOMAP Plus 93sv with a GT52 transducer (side imaging and down imaging it compatible with Live scope). I have done some crappie in the past (very little experience) however I have never used any kind of electronic for fishing. I live in Shreveport, LA. I知 looking for a good crappie lake near me. Willing to travel 1-2 hours.

I have done a lot of reading about Crappie fishing and electronic. It seems it really helps out with finding and catching crappie. So I知 ready to learn how to properly use the Garmin. The closest lake to me is Cross Lake in Shreveport, LA. Cross Lake is a shallow lake ( average depth is 4-8ft deep, a very few spots 10-15ft deep). Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
