I also posted this in the trip planning forum -

but from a strictly FISHING perspective.... which lake would be better?

Crab/Cummings

-or-

Parent/Disappointment

Caught a pile of average to small smallies in Disappointment and Parent several years ago. Never been to Crab. Longer reply in your post in the trip planning.

Were they at least eater size or plop back into the lake to grow more?

They were plenty big enough to clean.

Never been to Crab; had decent luck on N end of Disappointment for walleyes last August.

Disappointment also has silver pike. Caught one there 2 years ago. Interesting fish I'd never seen a silver pike before.
