I can eat that stuff cold.

Headed up to AR this weekend, taking some of my tasty ribs to burn, but my bud up there has a cooler full of crappie took out of lake DeGray and I'm sure it will be delish.

Easter Sunday feast for the chosen few. Bismarck, AR, baby. We git 'er done!

Eat till you cain't no mo, then break into the Tennessee sour mash. Hey, I'm a cheap date.

Smoked white fish. Try it. Usually find them in a good deli.

Texas crappie is delish too!

I used to go fishing with my dad and we would catch them and fry them in some corn meal right in the open air, with some white bread and chilli flavored corn chips.
You are right....crappie is the best tasting of them all!!!

If it’s so good, and I’m not saying it isn’t, why is it spelled half-crap?

Needs a name change. I am not going to eat anything named “crappie”.

I've been to Lake DeGray. Nice place.

Hope you have a happy crappie redneck Easter!

Rainbow trout or Superior white fish is the best...broiled until the eyes turn white/with lots of butter and a tad of garlic..

I admit it is good, but man, dem bones, dem bones!!
That’s why my personal favorite is catfish. Cook that puppy up and the meat literally falls off the center!

Crappie is among the best of freshwater fish... but I put Walleye ahead of it in every way.

Some of my fondest fishing moments as a kid was the crappie wall at Calaveras Lake south of San Antonio. Exactly 25’ down was almost a constant school of pan sized filets for the taking. My mom fried ‘em as soon as us boys brought ‘em in. Yummy!!

Bluegill is mighty fine eating. I think it nudges out crappie, but not by much.

Yep, I agree about crappie, good eating for sure. I camped at Lake DeGray State Park back in February. Just putting in a plug, it's one of the most clean and nice parks I have ever stayed at. Great place to take the family, has golf course, horse back riding, lodge, restaurant, ski boat, and jet ski rentals. And, only 30 miles from Hot Springs in everyone get bored. Btw, DeGray is a bit of a hike for you isn't it West Texas Chuck? Used to live in Midland and have made the drive a few times myself :)
