    We were fishing lake hickory. Caught a few in gunpowder with there tails tore up and a couple on the main lake below 127 bridge on main lake. Seems like the biggest ones had part of their tail missing.

    Generally that is a male as male crappie clean out a spot with their tails for females to lay eggs. I could be wrong but that has been my understanding.
