Caught a few crappie today that were full of eggs. They were the color of cornmeal. Nowhere near what you see when they are spawning. The water temp was 73 and has been for a while. Think these fish will spawn in a few weeks?Attachment 163305

My guess is that they probably won't. They will probably absorb the eggs. How big were the fish? Where did you catch them?
females will usually have some eggs in them year around , id say they are not going to spawn this year for what ever reason, finding them with eggs this late is common though
They were good sized fish. (3/4 -1lb) They came out of a bar ditch in Greene County. Had 8 of em like that. Lots of eggs in em, but pale yellow almost white.Quote:
