We have white crappie and black crappie.....the blacks are referred to as specks.....The Magnolia crappie has a black stripe from its nose all the way up and down its back.

They all taste the same to me

Good for you Paige, now you are hooked but it can get HI$ so watch out. We need to keep a good cook happy! As far as eating I like the black (speck) a little better but haven't found either to be bad eating. I think the blacks meat is a little firmer, IMHO.

So all of these are specks?Attachment 157076

Just a guess from the pic but the top one and the 3rd one look like blacks to me and the other 2 whites.

Nice fish . I think steve is right .

I agree with Steve
