    that's a "odd looking Crappie" because it's NOT a Crappie .... it is, in fact, a Rockbass !!

    Fine eating......fillet looks and tastes as close to crappie as anything I've ever seen. Can't tell them apart, white meat wiht fine black looking threads in it.
    If it's to deep to stand up and there is to much to drink, WEAR YOUR LIFE JACKET.
