Exploring the ecological differences between black crappie and white crappie
Black crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatus) and white crappie (Pomoxis annularis) are two closely related species that support a vital catch-and-keep fishery in the central and southern United States. Management of these two species is often plagued by poor growth and unpredictable swings in …

Influence of Saugeye on Black Crappie Populations in Two Northeastern South Dakota Impoundments
… Lakes Richmond and Mina, 2) determine changes in black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus populations that were potentially associated with the saugeye introductions in Lakes Richmond and Mina, and 3) determine food habits of saugeye in Lake Richmond. Saugeyes were stocked at a total length of 3 to 4 …

The Effects of Seasonal Changes and Turbidity on Swimming Performance in White Crappie Pomoxis Annularis and Black Crappie Pomoxis Nigromaculatus.
… season and turbidity on swimming performance in black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus and white crappie Pomoxis annularis. These closely related fish co-occur and their relative abundance is thought to be governed by the levels of turbidity in the form of suspended sediments. Black crappie …

Factors Affecting Recruitment of Black Crappies in South Dakota Waters
… was undertaken during spring 1995 to identify black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus nest sites in one South Dakota impoundment (Richmond Lake) and one natural lake (Brant Lake). Individually coded ultrasonic transmitters were implanted into the body cavity of 15 adult male black crappies in each …

Juvenile crappie growth and bioenergetics: implications for management using blacknose crappie
Collectively, black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus and white crappie P. annularis make up important harvest-oriented sport fisheries across North America, especially in the Midwest. Over the past several decades, the major management issues facing crappie populations have been identified as poor …

Structure, Dynamics, and Movement Patterns for Crappies in South Dakota Waters
… to determine monthly and diel movements of white crappies Pomoxis annularis in a South Dakota glacial lake. Sonic transmitters were surgically implanted in 37 adult white crappies (265-327 mm, total length; 315-530g). From 15 April to 15 October, 1, 712 locations were recorded for 34 of these …

Food Habits of Young-of-the-Year Fishes in Abbey Pond, South Dakota
… salmoides), bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus), black crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatus), yellow bullhead (Ictalurus natalis), and yellow perch (Perca flavescens) were studied during 1973 and 1974 in Abbey Pond, South Dakota. Organisms found in young-of-the-year fish stomachs and in plankton …

Assessing the Sustainability of Fish Communities in Glacial Lakes: Habitat Inventories and Relationships Between Lake Attributes and Fish Communities
… basin ruggedness was negatively correlated with black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus PSD, northern pike Wr, and walleye Stizostedion vitreum Wr. Lake surface area was positively correlated with walleye Wr, walleye length at age 3, and yellow perch Wr. Nitrate levels were positively correlated …

Food Habits of Fish In A Multispecies Farm Pond
Food habits of yellow perch, bluegill, and black crappie were studied during 1970 and 1971 in Abbey Pond, South Dakota. Aquatic insects, zooplankton, mollusks, and fish were the most frequently consumed food items by the three species. Yellow perch led primarily on aquatic insects, zooplankton, and …

A Comparison Between South Dakota and North American Standard Sampling Gears in Lakes and Reservoirs
… net types though Standard nets captured more Black Crappies and SDGFP nets captured more Black Bullheads. Standard modified fyke nets tended to select for larger Black Crappie and Bluegills. In both MR and non-MR systems, conversion factors for lakewide catch per unit effort were developed for …

Survey of the Fishes and Habitat in the Upper Moreau River, Perkins County, South Dakota
… were common carp, emerald shiner, white bass, black crappie, and largemouth bass. Of these, white bass, black crappie, and largemouth bass comprised 0.06% of the total catch in 1995 and were considered incidental species. Yellow perch was historically collected, but was not found during this …

The Fish Population of Lake Poinsett, South Dakota, as Indicated By the Catch
… decline in gill net and trap net catches of black bullhead, black crappie, and white crappie. A late summer increase in the catch of yearling black bullheads, crappies, white bass, carp and bigmouth buffalo was attributed to an increase in activity or change in behavior pattern. Diurnal …

Evaluation of Walleye X Sauger Hybrid Introductions in South Dakota Waters
… Evidence suggesting large scale predation by black crappies Pomoxis nigromaculatus immediately following stocking may, at least in part, explain this lack of success. However, in Lake Herman, where black crappie density was relatively low, saugeye survival was high. We captured over three …
