I see Jeffrey, the limits in Jersey are statewide . When I keep i adhere to a 10" minimum .10-14" is good size for keeping to eat I think.I have kept bigger but now don't know if it's a good idea as the 14+ should be better breeders.

Thanks guys.......Hey John.........In North Carolina the creel limits depend on location......in my region it's 20 a person with an 8" minimum.......several trophy waters have a 10" minimum.........I maintain a Virginia license also and the crappie limit there is 25 a day with no minimum...........I scale some small crappie for my family but an 11 to 12 inch fish is my favorite to filet.......It was cold today Bruce but not Pennsylvania cold....lol

Nice haul, Jeffrey. I have to wait for the ice to see crappie again. Here in PA we're settling into winter.

Good size and fantastic quantity .Whats the amount of Crappie one is allowed to keep in your area Jeffrey? The limit in Jersey is 10 with an 8" minimum.
