Crappie Surge, Tennessee Record Breaking Boost!

TN WildCast 441 - Dive into the world of crappie fishing on this episode of Tennessee WildCast, where hosts Jason and Don visit with Travis Scott, Assistant Chief of Fisheries. Travis shares his journey from working at a salmon hatchery in Alaska to leading fisheries management in Tennessee, offering insights into the state’s record-breaking crappie production in 2024. With nearly 1.9 million crappie fingerlings stocked across 14 reservoirs, TWRA’s innovative mat-spawning technique has revolutionized hatchery output. This method, inspired by other states, allows precise control over spawning, boosting survival rates and ensuring healthier fish populations. Travis explains how TWRA targets reservoirs with low natural reproduction, using data from surveys to guide stocking efforts. The episode also explores the challenges of hatchery management, from weather impacts to predator control, and the tireless work of TWRA’s seven warm-water hatcheries. Anglers will love the tips on targeting crappie in spring and summer, plus a unique recipe for baked crappie with shallots and mushrooms. Tune in to learn how TWRA’s efforts are enhancing Tennessee’s fisheries, supporting anglers, and sustaining vibrant aquatic ecosystems.
