Comments on Management Practices

Tennessee Narrative KEEP AQUATIC WEED INFESTATIONS BELOW 50% AREAL COVERAGE *5212*; STOCK STOCKING OF SOME FORAGE SPECIES CAN CAUSE DECREASED GROWTH, SURVIVAL ADDITIONAL FORAGE SPECIES *5220, 5221*; REDUCE POPULATION SIZE THRU OF YOUNG BLACK CRAPPIE DUE TO INTERSPECIFIC COMPETITION FOR FOOD *5219*, ALTHOUGH GROWTH OF ADULTS WAS IMPROVED MECHANICAL HARVESTING *5326* OR INCREASED PREDATION TO INCREASE GROWTH RATES *5216, 5325*; MANAGE FOR OVERABUNDANT BASS POPULATION TO KEEP PREDATION PRESSURE HIGH AND QUALITY OF CRAPPIE FISHERY HIGH *5324* *5318*; A BIBLIOGRAPHY ON CRAPPIE MANAGEMENT IN SMALL IMPOUNDMENTS IS GIVEN IN *5331* Virginia Narrative This is an excellent panfish, attracted to brush piles and weed beds. It is intolerant of high turbidity *788,835,1322,2128*. Adult populations in most most of Missouri's large reservoirs show symptoms of over-exploitation. Experimental crappie regulation of 10 size limit and a reduced daily creel from 30 to 10 fish at the James River Arm at Table Rock Lake has increased the survival of age I and II fish and resulted in the subsequent harvest of larger crappie *6192*. Crawley in Olahoma, believes the cause of stunting is undernourishment, and when fish populations cannot be properly harvested through fishing and the action of predators, he suggests poisoning fish in selected areas of the lake *5561*. Authors of a study at Pony Express Lake in Missouri feel that overcrowding and stunting can be controlled in part by high fishing pressure and a large population of predator bass *6251*.TN00344KEEP AQUATIC WEED INFESTATIONS BELOW 50% AREAL COVERAGE*TN5212* STOCK ADDITIONAL FORAGE SPECIES *TN5220, TN5221* REDUCE POPULATION SIZETHRU MECHANICAL HARVESTING *TN5326* OR INCREASED PREDATION TO INCREASEGROWTHRATES *TN5216, TN5325* MANAGE FOR OVERABUNDANT BASS POPULATIONTO KEEP PREDATION PRESSURE HIGH AND QUALITY OF CRAPPIE FISHERY HIGH*TN5324* STOCKING OF SOME FORAGE SPECIES CAN CAUSE DECREASED GROWTH,SURVIVAL OF YOUNG BLACK CRAPPIE DUE TO INTERSPECIFIC COMPETITION FOR FOOD *TN5219*, ALTHOUGH GROWTH OF ADULTS WAS IMPROVED *TN5318* A BIBLIOGRAPHY ON CRAPPIE MANAGEMENT IN SMALLIMPOUNDMENTS IS GIVEN IN *TN5331*
