Father-in law needs sunnies

Visit this guy once a year, he is now too old to fish so he likes it when I bring sunnies( i prefer crappies, easier to clean) Used to go down there and get good sunnies (I can tell you in a pm what lakes we fished, don’t like to name lakes on a forum)Anyway lakes are probably a little green I don’t care, friend of mine knew a guy down there and he was really on top of the bite, great fisherman, anyway the lakes down there are very ‘boom, bust’ so getting some info first would help.Even tell me what bait store could help. Thanks
