Title: Crappie and perch
Post by: idahopanfish on Jan 19, 2008, 10:45 PM

If you find perch will you find crappie near by? Do they hang out together at all or share the same area? or where the perch were during the day will the crappie come in there at night?

Kind of a yes/no thing...if you find perch doesn't mean the crappie are around.  If you find crappie, there are perch around.  I usually see the perch on bottom, and the crappie are suspended higher in the water...I do get the oddball crappie off of the bottom every now and then tho...
