Question...
Why do some crappie contain eggs long after the perceived spawn is done? We usually start catching them on our brush around this time, when reports start coming in saying the spawn is on the downswing. But for some reason we will have some with eggs all the way into June. We are going tomorrow afternoon and I will give a report back. Im hoping that some have finally made it to my brush. Excited to see that cork sink and about the new places I have made this year.

A very small amount of eggs that dont get laid gets absorbed back into the body of the fish but what I'm seeing now are eggs that still need to be laid. I'm not catching crappie that looks like theyve swallowed a golf ball but I am just assuming that those crappie have laid probably half of their eggs and are moving back to the banks to finish laying out when Mother Nature tells them to. Fish are in the spawning mode on the lakes I'm fishing as about all the females Iv'e cleaned still have eggs.

Maybe they got interrupted, they saw your nice bait and decided to eat

Some do not spawn every year. Some never even atempt to.
