Description
5 pounds of individually flash frozen skin on crappie fillets.
Our crappie are wild caught in cold clear Canadian waters so they have less of the "muddy" taste that is sometimes associated with crappie caught further south. You will get between 5-7 fillets per pound on average but sizes do vary.
The white crappie and black crappie (Pomoxis annularis and Poxomis nigromaculatus) is a well know panfish plentiful throughout much of the country. Crappie goes by many names depending on the area of the country: Calico bass, papermouths, strawberry bass, white perch, specks, speckled perch, Sacalait, rock bass and Oswego bass.
