Bloody veins in the egg sack are getting ripe for the spawn. They are close to spawning for March 9 and water temp only 55F. I typically see this 3-4 weeks later. Maybe it is stable weather, maybe it is blacknose, I don't know but I'm excited for a productive spawn and hope SC holds water.

Black nose is a one time shot, they do not reproduce successfully, hybrid.

This is just not true, the black stripe is a recessive gene of the same species. If you want to talk about how they use habitat and feed differently, I'm in.

Black nose in other parts of the country do spawn. I was told by a biologist during the stocking that these will not reproduce. Maybe it's not true. The ones I have been catching are all the same size, clones, no small ones.

Why would the black nose in other parts of the country spawn, but our black nose that came from Arkansas not spawn?
