I am sure I don't understand. That's why I'm asking the ????. I know when they have 2 egg sacks are as big as my thumb that makes me think they have'nt got rid of them. But, Like I say,,, I am no crappie spawning expert. I'll just try to catch my limit of 8 or 10 a day whether they have spawned or not, May be time for a road trip to western Yell county this weekend !!
