Possible Causes of the Small Average Size of Crappie in Some Oklahoma Reservoirs
Abstract
This research was funded by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. It is the initial phase in a program to develop management techniques to reduce the problem of stunting in black and white crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatus and P. annularis). The literature was reviewed and the relation between diet and growth rates of crappie was evaluated. Gene Stout, Director of Fort Sill Military Reservation's Department of Fish and Wildlife, provided equipment, labor and housing for the work done on Fort Sill. This aid was an indispensable supplement to the funds received for the project and is greatly appreciated.
