Wow crappie over trout I think thats a first  ;)  nicely done and good luck with your quest.


It is a PRIVILEGE to take any animals life not a right and that privilege comes with some responsibility a license to fish and hunt is a license to be a sportsman not a license to kill

The decision on what taste better is a no brainer. The taxpayer fish vs. a wild crappie.
