To find a list of nearby lakes with the species of interest go to:
http://www.wa.gov/wdfw/outreach/fishing/warmwtr.htm

Clink on warmwater fish waters and then go the county of interest.

Out of way waters are likely to have nicer crappies than the heavily fished lakes (crappies are easy to over harvest and 10 inch plus fish are getting harder to find).
