Although this isn't as tempting as some recent pics! Here is tonight's dinner. Crappie cakes and parmasean crusted crappie in the air fryer. Only complaint is I didn't have any leftovers!
I've got a small pond behind my house, maybe 1/2 acre in size. I rigged up my new Livescope on a John boat a couple of days ago and looked around the pond. There are definitely some fish in there, and the pond is 9' deep. I need to put some structure in it and try fishing it again. The only time we tried to fish it was the when we moved in almost 3 years ago. I caught one crappie, with the black stripe along the spine.

That looks great! Gotta admit that this pond has never had a fish finder in it. I'd love to see the bottom and compare it to what I've "felt" over the years.

What would be a go-to minnow-replacement lure for a farm pond that is overrun with crappie? We usually fish my mom's place with minnows but she told me that the local bait shop went out of business.
I need to get 80-100 out of there.
For the past couple of years we have just been using goldfish from Petco since there are no minnow places around us. .15/piece = 80crappie....$12
We are going to try Fork again on Saturday. This is our second trip and the first one wasnt productive. My 9yo daughter wants to catch some fish! Hopefully, I can figure out where they are hiding this time.

I haven’t been on Fork in a while but if I was going Sunday and had Livescope I would fish timber in the main river channel in 50-60’ of water fishing 20-40’ down. If I didn’t I would be dragging minnows on the bottom off SRA. Little Caney or the coffer dam
The 2" Bobby Garlands are my choice for crappie. To get 100 out of a pond should not take long at all. At the catch rate in my pond of 10/hour/person less than a day. Now how deep is your pond and do you have brush piles and or trees laydowns or standing? Mine are on the deeper end on standing timber right now but my pond is only 1.5 acres.
On the subject of fresh vs. salt I have been greeted by girls with much less on than above when night fishing Conroe. Since me and my fishing buddy are happily married men, we just smiled and kept on fishing. It is my 32nd anniversary today too.
I thought my 3.2lb crappie was a gooden....but I told my coworker from Louisiana and he said that isn't big enough to shake a stick at. Why is it we don't get them upwards of 5lbs here in Texas like they do in other states?
Anyone know anything about the Humminbird Mega Live that is supposed to compete with Livescope? All I could find was that it didn't need a black box and would work with some of the existing graphs.
