Selecting male lmb not so easy - 01/16/19 02:40 PM
I thought I could fish a little during our E. Texas winter and determine the sex by seeing females with eggs and males without eggs. Will, not so much, and being a lmb fisherman for most all of my life I thought I could tell the difference. All fish caught @ 15 to 18" was easy to tell they were females. But 14 to 15" not so much. I could not tell if they had full bellies from eating or from eggs. I may have to have a lab at the ponds shoreline in order to tell the difference. All lmb caught in the 14 to 14 1/2" were 7 to 8 oz over the American Fisheries Society RW charts.
