It’s really neat how scientific it all is but long story short between SC dnr, NC dnr, Winthrop University, 3rd party research etc. there is no clear warning against crappie. There are warnings for other fish. But no warnings for crappie praise the Lord. It is all scientific and stuff about fat, blood, diet, etc. All I know is they know enough to have restrictions on some that means they know enough to not have restrictions on others i.e. crappie. And maybe others? Perch etc. not sure about that. Definite bass restrictions among others. Hope this helps
