Yea we dont have any real good crappie fishing around here. The closest place has some black crappie but the population is so low that its real hard to fish for them.

I miss bluegill!   Not many out here in Wyo.  I like to mix cornmeal and flour 50/50, take Lawry's seasoning salt and color the top of the mix with it.  Add a bit of black pepper and mix.  Then dip the filleted bluegill in egg/milk and into the cormeal/flour/Lawry's mix and fry hot.
Won't be many leftovers.
