I can help you.

If you enjoy crappie fishing, i got the fish for you in Florida. Sand perch! They are so much fun to catch on light tackle. I use 8 lb. Test, # 8 gold long shank hook and a 3/4 oz. Slide sinker. For bait i use frozen shrimp. The secret to catching them is peel the shrimp and cut it into 3 or 4 pcs. Happy fishing. O by the way i fish in stuart florida.

Uncle joe's trout spinner.

They stay on longer. That is if you used kosher salt. I catch fish with them.

Bullet weights. Can be use in different ways. I use them for bass fishing. Rubber baits.

I grind them up add onions, celery, raw egg and white bread. Make like meatballs then boil them in chicken stock. Eat hot with cocktail sauce.

I think it may have been the way you cooked it. Try fillet ing it dip in milk and egg wash, the roll it in progresso italian bread crumbs. Fry in clean oil until golden brown. Try dipping in cocktail sauce. 😋

R those stocked fish. Is that a club area?
