Some lakes have short and heavy crappies & others have long skinny ones.
In Indiana a 12" Dewart Lake black crappie is 1 lb. But in Patoka Lake in Southern Indiana it would be lucky to be 12 oz.
I caught a 17.5" White Crappie at Patoka Lake & it was 2.25 lbs.
My brother caught a 18.25" black crappie there and it was 3.25 lbs, and the day before a white crappie was caught that was 19" and 3lbs, 2 oz.
im pretty sure mine is a white
