Yep, sounds like a head scratcher , in Florida I believe crappie are spawning twice a yr, obviously more prevalent in winter months, but have even seen August eggs in fish, confuses me too, like to leave them alone during spawn.... always brought up brain-washed temps must be in the sixty's.......BTW like the filet job leaving out the stomach meat....
