Saw this on Crappie.com, and I WILL be trying this!!

"I take some big crappie filets and BOIL them with crab boil (this can be done the day before as the meat MUST be cool). I strain the water away using a very fine sive (to save all the meat). I then went to GOOGLE and typed in Maryland Crab Cakes (make sure it's one that calls for some green onion). I got a receipe for one, got it all together and where it called for X pounds of crab meat I placed in X pounds of the boild crappie. We made the cakes, sauteed them in butter and OH MY GOSH people went nuts."
Here's one I've used before:
1 egg yolk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 pound Maryland jumbo lump crab meat(sub crappie here!)
1/2 Cup Chopped Green onion
1/2 Cup Bread Crumbs (if desired)
Preheat the broiler.
In a large bowl, combine the egg yolk, salt, pepper, mustard, Worcestershire, green onion, mayonnaise, and parsley. Then, gently fold in crabmeat (be careful not to break up the lumps, here you will be adding in the CHILLED crappie). Sprinkle on bread crumbs and lightly mix. Shape into cakes and broil for 5 minutes. Or sautee in pan with butter. Sometimes make them silver dollar sized for apps.
ONCE YOU TRY THIS A FEW TIMES, IT'S EASIER TO MAKE. BOILING THE FISH THE DAY BEFORE CUTS THE WORK IN HALF. ADJUST THE INGRIDENTS TO YOUR TASTE. ADD OR OMIT ANYTHING YOU LIKE.</p>
