Crappie or croppie

I have not fished for this species in a very long time. So when my buddy said that he would take me to a pond where they were I jumped at the chance. We caught all we or rather I wanted to clean in about an hour. Man I can’t wait to get them in the skillet.

They eat good no matter what you call 'em, but they're Crappie in my world. I went to Arkansas to visit a buddy & we went Croppie fishing. While I was there, I started calling Bass, Boss because it sounds equally as strange to me.

You sometimes need to be careful what you call them.

My wife gave away a larry tople #ed print because she had heard me describing it as a crappie/y print. Thus having no value.

I should have used the croppie term in that instance. :)

walleyes are the only fish close imo to them as a tasty catch.
In fact I think there is a mess of them from cane creek on the menu this week.
