Moved to Kansas

[sooners08]

My family and me recently moved to the fort leavenworth area. I fish from the bank and I hear Perry lake is the best place to catch some Crappie. Is this true? Summer is hard to fish from the bank but I would really like to catch some so my wife who hails from Georgia can try these tasty fish. Thanks.

Leavenworth county lake is closer and has a good number of crappie

I use to live in the Manhattan KS area for 13 years when we were stationed at Fort Riley.

I really miss the fishing there. Good folk out that way too.

If you live in Leavenworth the Fort has some nice ponds, I used to do good fishing them when I was a Kid, of course that was a couple of Centuries ago.

When they are releasing water out of Perry you can have some luck fishing below outlet also.
