I've been killing them on my home lakes but with all the rain and changing temps not sure they were ever committed on the banks. Fished LSL yesterday and caught tons of smaller crappie and 10 keepers, many of which were still in colors. calling my buddy I gave them too to see what the eggs looked like on females.

on smaller lake caught 3 male keepers but they wern't beat up.

Each individual lake has a different spawn time at least where I fish. Have seen it where had great few weeks of spawn on one only to have one dozen miles away go into it mid may and into june. that's in northern MO.
