Cecil, that just amazes me!! What are the spine counts of black vs white vs hybrid?
No set spine count on a hybrid. At least not the ones I've seen. As you probably know black crappies tend to have 7 to 9 dorsal fins spines and a white crappies only 6. The most common hybrid I've seen is they have a vertical bar pattern like a white crappie but have 7 to 9 spines like a black crappie.
