Publication Summary: Crappie tend to be more difficult to successfully manage in ponds than largemouth bass, bluegill, redear sunfish, hybrid sunfish and channel catfish. Generally, crappie should not be stocked into ponds where other fish species are the primary emphasis. Crappie generally provide the best fisheries in ponds with abundant 8- to 15-inch largemouth bass, abundant forage fish, some aquatic vegetation, and relatively clear water.
