In Part 2 of our crappie fishing series, we dive deep into the data and discoveries from our collaboration with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission’s biologist and crappie guide Chris Miller. 🎣
This podcast-style episode unpacks fascinating insights, including:
* The surprising advanced age of the trophy crappies we caught.
* The biology and behavior of hybrid crappies.
* Effects of size and creel limits on crappie populations.
* Understanding fall (or 'false') spawns and spawning behavior.
* Whether we should consider practicing catch and release for these larger, older fish.
Join us for this in-depth discussion blending science, fishing strategies, and conservation to help shape the future of crappie fishing in North Carolina. Don’t miss it!
