Might want to hit Texas , we are a dog friendly state for sure and the crappie ketchn is often times legendary.
Guides are not cheap , but they are plentiful on lake fork and it constantly produces great fish year round .
Not sure who PR is but he is not alone in hauling out loads of fish from fork
Might contact jerry Hancock and see “if” you can book him , he is one of the best in these parts
