Anyone know what size is considered a trophy? My son just caught a black species in our pond weighing 2.01 lb and just shy of 16”.
10

just google the state records for Sac-a-Lait in the state you are in

It's going to be at least 3.5lb minimum. A 2lb sacolait can be caught on the reg in lake darbonne. But a trophy is a trophy so if he wants a replica of a 2lb fish, nobody would laugh at him. You aren't catching that in Henderson.

3.5# is a lofty standard considering there have only been 3 black crappie entered into the LA state record books since the separation of the white and black species in 1994. A 2lber is a slab of you think it’s a trophy it’s a trophy.

It's lake dependent. That might be considered small in some waters, and huge in others. I consider a 16 inch 2 pound crappie a trophy, in my waters. Congratulations to the young man.

This was caught in our neighborhood pond in the Baton Rouge area.

First, I need the neighborhood name and coordinate locations of the catch before I can give proper opinion.

I would consider 3lb an exceptional crappie not sure about Sac-a-Lait. Half the state record would probably be acceptable so you are probably good.

That is a nice one!

Looks like a trophy to me. Congrats to the young man.

A trophy is different for everyone. It's not going to set any records but that is a dang fine fish

Scale and fry that hawg.
Posted on 3/2/24 at 7:29 pm to ComebackEllisHugh
That's a huge fish. Congrats to him.
Also, that's a white crappie, not a black crappie.

You are now being tracked. Your location will be revealed soon.
Congrats to your son. Fine catch.

To me, a 3lb crappie is there with a 10 lb bass

It's lake dependent.

That's a trophy in my eyes.
I caught a 14 1/2" around Lake Bouef and all the old guys were pretty impressed. As mentioned, I'll agree, it's lake dependant.

Congrats! Bigger than my best!

I remember seeing one mounted at a restaurant around Toledo bend that was 4 lbs.
Of course it could have been fake
