Thread: Poverty Point

Made one of my annual trips to the Point this past weekend. Fishing was good. My nephew caught his biggest crappie ever and brother Chris was a first timer to the lake. Crappie fishing was good. No giants as in the past few years but good quality fish for certain. To my surprise, i learned that they had stocked hybrid stripers in the lake a few years ago. Why would they introduce another fish to compete with crappie is beyond me. If anyone has that information, please let me know. We had a great time catching over 70 hybrids and that many crappie over 3 days. it is always catch and release for me when i go there, although we did keep a few stripers to fry. Heading up again this month to look for the big one. Although to us marsh guys any 2lb plus crappie is a big one lol.
