Re: crappie the size of minnows
k5 : i don't know what size body of water you are fishing, but i'll give ya a quick run down on my experiences with small crappie.<br /> fish generally school according to size. if you are on a large lake , move! with the exception of spawning season, most large crappies will be found in deeper water, unless they move shallow to feed. small ponds that have a predominate number of crappies usually do not have enough food source to support large growth, they generally are stunted.<br /> crappie lakes also go through cycles. you can find that you will have a season or two of smaller fish, that will improve over time. however, most fishermen spread the word that a lake is producing larger fish, so pressure tends to increase until the majority are harvested.
