    We do have lots of predators here on Nimrod Lake. I figured a Water Turkey (Cormerant) or Great Blue Heron hurt that fish when it was small. Not unusual to see Crappie with fresh wounds but figure some are Gar bites.

    You are probably right Nimrod, I've seen fresh and old scars like that on crappie in a reservoir that gets hit hard by water turkeys.
    I used to do research on water turkeys. They are some mean birds and have an extremely sharp beak, no problem taking a chunk out of a fish or your hand.
