'spawn' happens when the combo of water temps and photo period comes together for best hatching. Believe me they are not nest building under 60 degrees. Make up your own theories about this if you must but,,,, try not to confuse the issue. JMO <*)}}}><

If old topics dont get re-hashed, then the newbies and youngsters won't have the opportunity to LEARN. Besides while I mostly agree with the biologists reports, I also know not all crappie are programed the same. Heck at my favorite lake I usually can catch spawners somewhere on the lake from late April thru the 2nd week of June.

Have fun. Go fish!

I still go a couple time a week. Spawn or not I am fishing.

Clinton crappie eggs are a lot bigger than two weeks ago.
