Hi I am new to BFT but I would like to know if anyone knows of any good places to go crappie fishing? Thanks

Sure wish I knew. I really enjoy eating them, but it's been years since I've tried for them. I know that during the springtime Willard can be productive for some big slabs. I think that Pineview will come on strong with the 2 recent years of weed floods. I hope someone else will chime in for ya and give you some good places to try.

Three years ago i caught 50+ in a few hours fishing at echo, the year after that caught a few - but i haven caught any or heard of anyone catching any in ages -

If you are looking for crappie I am not real sure where to go right now, but if you are just looking for some sunfish Mantua is pretty good right now.

I have been up there a few times in the past week and a half. I have caught a few good bluegill and some perch. It seems like they got lots of pressure this last weekend but we were there just last night and the majority of our keepers were good sized perch and a few bluegill. The artificial lure restriction got lifted this year so they are a bit easier to get to hold on to the lure, it's great for kids.

Good luck on your hunt.
