That data is available for Lake Nimrod. Contact the fisheries biologists in the Russellville Office (Bob Limbird or Frank Leone. They can provide the info that you are looking for. Generally there is a wide range of ages at a given length. For Conway we see ages from 3.5 to 6.5 that are 15 inches. We see very few crappie on Conway that are 16 inches or longer. For some reason they stop putting growth into length and just get fatter and fatter.
