Happy new year! I'm planning a short trip to the Dallas and Austin area next week. Does anyone have any suggestions for lakes in those areas for crappie fishing. I will be bringing a boat, but I understand many boat launches are closed due to the extended drought. I have never fished in Texas so I have no idea where the good crappie lakes are. Any tips on seasonal techniques would also be helpful. I plan to catch and release, but is it legal in Texas to donate fish to a food bank or charity?
