Lake Fork? On my trips there, the bridges were a hot spot for crappie fishermen. My guide thought I was nuts for being excited about catching a 6" crappie on a Super Fluke. It was my first one ever so it was a historical achievement for me! We should stock them in Lake Wilson and eradicate the Devils and other cichlids.
There was a study done about stocking cropie in the lake. Something about not enough lake and cover ..... and also there was a problem with food. They figured they would end up small and stunted.
