Only because walleye season is closed. I used to fish crappie heavy now it's just a spanner fish between ice out and opening day of walleye.
To get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
To eat them cause they taste so good.
For the photo opportunities.
To get back in touch with mother nature and observe wildlife.
To be with my friends.
For the excitement of the THUMP - or the tug on the line.
For the Challenge of finding, catching and outsmarting them.
Ya know, reading these answers reinforces why I like this board. The members on here are "real" and not afraid to say that they enjoy the peace and slow serenity provided to us with this beautiful world. I feel blessed to be in the company of you fine folks.

concentrating on catching crappie is like meditation it clears your mind of all your stresses and you end up relaxed . sometimes you even catch a great tasting fish.
I go because I can.

When my son was little we got into a creek stacked up with crappie, while white bass fishing. And haven't let up since that day.

I hunt and fish cause it's what I've been doing since I was a kid and the only activity that still holds my interest as an adult. Every time I catch a fish or harvest an animal I get the same excitement and pride from it the same now at age 38 as I did when I was 8. Plus, I'm too big to play pee wee football now, so the coach says
If I go to long without going crappie fishing I get withdrawal symptoms. I also get land sickness
