We been practicing catch and trash on the white crappie in our little acre and a half bass and blue gill pond. I decide to "field dress" some to day and see what the have been eating.

I had 4 fish to work with. two bigger fatter one 9 to 10 inches and two smaller 7 inch fish.

This year is my first year with crappie, I don't know much about them.

The bigger fish must be females, they were full of roe.

They have s small abdominal cavity compared to trout and pike I caught. One female and one male had in I what think was there stomach, what looked like textured mud. I have no idea what is was. The other two I could not clearly identify their stomachs.

Is there a way to sex these fish?
