I should say that I agree with everyone because this year Crappie Fishing has been all over the place sometimes day by day or for that matter hour by hour and place by place. Everyone seems to think this or that is the place to be at this time while the other says no too early the other says no too late one says now, or just wait .....and the winner is YOU!!!!!!!Remember there is a fish down there doing this wandering why can't the fisherman make up his mind ..But I don't think it's the fish that are confused I think it's the fisherman that are trying to confuse the fish

here is some food for thought found on the Florida forum

Crappie Spawn Timing


funny how I just received a reply from mofishmgr saying the same thing in summary especially the part about the fish dissolving the eggs if unable to spawn and if that be the case could that explain why fishermen are now catching females with eggs but no large red vessel activity because if the female is not going to lay then nature will cut off nourishment to the eggs and signal the end of the effort and the remnant eggs then become protein in the female and dissolve as do fat in humans and the male can spare having to wag his tail making the beds ready and therefore same male does not look as though he has been making the bed ...
