Thanks for the info, LowePro. I read in the travel guide that the Black Hills of South Dakota are full of crappie. That's my first stop after a week of fishing in Oklahoma. That gave hope for Montana and Wyoming.

I guess if you are taking a pricey fishing trip with a full complement of top level fly fishing gear and paying big bucks for a personal guide, you have to turn up your nose at a lowly panfish. Crappie don't have any snob appeal and those of us who love to eat them, don't care what they're missing.

Thank you for finding and sending the information. Appreciate it.
