Thanks!

Yes, adding pea gravel/1"-3" river rock will help in getting fish to spawn where you want them to, but there's no guarantees!

The only way to reliably sex LMB is during the pre-spawn period. You use a catheter to see if they are males or females. Usually if you see ony one LMB on a bed guarding a nest or making a bed it should be a male.
