    Default Crappie fillets - 11lbs - $160.00


    I didn't know this was legal, but the price sounds about right.

    That's about what it cost me on some days anyway.

    well, after gas for the truck and boat + launch fees , new lures etc you would probably come out cheaper in the long run

    Wonder if they will send a scuba diver out to hang them out your hook and give a couple of tugs for an extra 5 bucks?

    The Walleye is a good deal for those of us who can't fish for them down here in the South. Used to live up North and caught many Walleye... only fish that tastes better than Crappie imo.

    Reelfoot ended the commercial harvest of crappie some years back, and it is not legal to sell them. It has really helped the average fisherman, and the average size of the fish. If you have never been, your missing out

    Interesting, I didn't know they had that many crappies that far north.

    Q: Where do the fish come from?
    A: Your walleye, perch, bluegill, northern, lake trout and crappie are wild caught in pristine northern lakes of Canada by Native Americans using sustainable harvesting practices. Canada's lakes are well managed, unpolluted, and have an abundance of freshwater fish. They are all from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and the Northern Territories--not the Great Lakes like my competitors. We do get lake whitefish and smelt from Lake Superior. Rainbow trout are farm-raised in Idaho. Bullheads are from Iowa and Minnesota. Lutefisk is different, (our only seafood) and comes from North Atlantic cod in Norway.

    Q: How are the fish processed and packaged?
    A: The majority of our fish is caught using gill nets. The harvest is iced down, taken to delivery points, and rushed to the packing plant. Facilities strategically located across the freshwater fishing region receive, grade, re-ice, pack and ship to market. They are then shipped across the border to our facility where it is stored in deep freeze at -18 degrees F. The fillets are IQF (flash frozen) so althought they may be together it is very simple to grab one or two fillets from the box without thawing the group.
    Good things come to those who bait.

    reminds me of deer hunting..by the time you figure up lease prices..fuel and everything else you have about $30 a pound in the deer meat.

    WTC, was there last fall, and noticed this hanging in the little museum-visitor center place there. May be kinda hard to read in the pic, but some folks may take this to heart still today!
