Hi all,

I have a six year old daughter who is bonkers over pan fish. Volume volume volume... not really my preference but.... well the six year old has a way of making it pretty fun. I'm thinking of crappie on the Rideau river I can get a fry on and she can get the action.we are fishing from a boat and I'm looking for a couple spots with a good chance of success (private message if you want to keep it secret

). And since I really don't fish for crappie any advice on tackle bait and techniques is welcome. I'll post pics and give credit to any advise that got our lines tight!

Thanks

I think Crappie is going to be tough for a 6 year old... heck, I have trouble finding an hooking the darn things and sometimes I convince myself that I know what I am doing! Would she be interested in some perch?!?!? Way easier to find and catch for a young-un.
