Crappie are known as Saccalait down in south Louisiana. Mighty fine eating but I hear they are not known as good table fair up north. Just don't get it but its weird how it works across the land. Florida hates the Goggle Eye or Warmouth but very tasty. Also Florida loves sheephead, not a favorite over here. I love to eat them as they have a slight oyster flavor to them from their eating habits. Some dislike the Redfish or Trout and that is just not ever going to happen in my household. Very good eating in my opinion. Nice catch but it would sure be fried, or panfried sautee style in my kitchen
