Crappie Candy, A Crappie fly. A case could be made that most of my flies are crappie flies.

You DO NOT have a monopoly on "crappie" flies! I should snow you some of my "crappie" and crappie flies!

I think in most of the United States crappie is pronounced the "a" should be an "o". I noticed Oldster is located here in Georgia where it is pronounced with the "a" sound. I have a friend from my church who is always looking for a good light hearted argument, he ask me why in Mississippi, where I am a native, we pronounce it with the "o" sound. I told him I thought it was because of the size and number of crappie we caught was too big and plentiful to be crappy. He hasn't brought it up again.

Mike, We are lucky that the fish don't seem to mind.
