I think that is true S 10. I love to catch crappie on my fly rod. Many lakes have Mayfly ,Caddis and even some stone fly hatches. At time many panfish including crappie will feed on the surface. Especially when crappie are near the surface during early spring spawn time. Catching a 12 inch crappie on a 5 weight fly rod is not only a lot of fun but very tasty also.
