looking for a lake

[crappiehunterchris]

If you have a graph use it to locate some brush piles. There are plenty that have been sunk over the years. There are a couple out and left of the ramp and several on the far side of the lake that are pretty deep. Lot of the crappie are smaller you'll have to wade through those to get any decent ones.

I may take the advantage of the millions of small ones to start up a pond thats empty work both ways gor me

It's not recommended to stock Crappie in a pond less than 50 acres, and especially not using White Crappie. Black Crappie do better, but still require space & a food source. They also need a predator species in the pond with them, to control their numbers, as they are prolific breeders and can overpopulate a small pond ... stunting their growth. (which is basically what is happening to Corinth and several of the other smaller lakes in that part of the state)

The bass and catfish feed on them and there is an abundance of shad and baitfish ive also thought of throwing shiners and minnows in there this summer its a 20 ft deep hole in the ground i believe 10-20 8-9 inch crappie wouldnt make a huge differance also the bass in this lake grow monsterouse
