Read an article about those the other day. It said the AGFC raises them and releases them because the uniques "racin stripe" helps them with creel surveys.
Barnett has them too.
Only way to make 'er hold still for a portrait!:rolleyes:
Those with the black stripe originate from a lonoke fish farm the game and fish used in the past for stock.
I've always wondered where they came from. I have caught them in Chicot, Grand, Wilson, Grampus and Wallace but I've never caught one in the River or the oxbow lakes. All the lakes named above have been stocked at some point and time by the AGFC. They put on a good fight even during the winter.
Way back in 1967 or 68,I was floating around the Tonkin Gulf,a shipmates girlfriend sent him a copy of " sports afield "and the section that had all of the1 or 2 paragraph, Notes of intrest,said thot the Loneoak fish hatchery had devoleped a crappie with a stripe down its nose and was called the Loneoak crappie but that was the only time that I ever saw it in print.And I have yet to catch one myself.If I hadn't been from NLR I probably would not have noticed or rememberd anything about it.
I've caught a few on Ouachita, and when I tried to find some info, ran across the wikipedia crappie page with a picture of one, taken by Jerry Blake. He's famous!
They are Black Crappie with a genetic marker that orginated in the White River area. I caught another one today in Nimrod Lake.:cool:
Doing it tomorrow am...thanks for asking and think of me about 8:00am.Quote:

My buddy caught one this past sunday out of a bar pit off of the St. Francis river just out from lake city. If these things are only in big lakes and impoundment, then I don't know how it got there. I wouldn't have even know what it was had I not of read this thread the other day. Then when he got it in the boat, I said hey man that is one of those black nose crappie that i read about the other day. That is the only one I have ever seen in person.
I recall catching them out of lake Houston just NE of Houston Tx over 20 years ago.
