Jeff, he is a black. I was like you only used color, now I count fins and color. Right when I think I had it down pat, they throw in hybrid and or grays.

I believe this is a Black Crappie with the seven Dorsal Spines........I use to think it was color only that distinguished Black or White Crappie but have learned the differences over the years.....

It was fun catching him and rewarding to see him shake his head and dive back to the depths to grow a couple inches.....That's the plan anyways....Thanks Eric!
