Exploring a possible relocate... Any info would be appreciated!
There's a lot of good reasons to relocate to Batesville, but I don't think crappie fishing is one of them. I usually have to travel at least 45 minutes to an hour to fish. The white river is full of crappie but it's hard to find them, then they may not be there the next day. A lot of Batesville people fish Greers Ferry and at times it can be good fishing, but there are plenty of times when it's one of the toughest lakes to crappie fish. When we moved here over 20 years ago it was because we thought it was the best place, out of many choices, to raise a family. And we weren't disappointed. Hope to see you here.
Batesville MS would be a better crappie fishing choice. [emoji4]
That's a fact!Quote:

Batesville is a great community to live and raise a family but like MAC said mostly have to drive 45 minutes or more to really be in good crappie waters. Me personally the driving is worth the trade off to live in a great community .
Raised my girls there, great community. Love your avatar brother
Not in a couple of weeks, may go this weekend.Quote:

I don't know what part of the country you live in now but I can tell you that community would be a great place to raise a family. As for the fishing, a few years ago, we fished a near-by white river oxbow called taylor bay and it was real good at times. However, if your willing to drive 3 hours you're considering a good area.
