Not sure what the law is in your state. So, whatever is legal...
In Mn, if you give crappies away, you can only give 10 a day. Another person will have to wait another day for you to give her 10. Kinda like...will have to starve for the night.
Too complicated. My friends and I eat on the spot and take the limit home with us.
I'm going ocean fishing again later today and I told myself if I catch, Im giving it away.
