How to Determine Fish Sex...


Gerritt

Recommended Posts

With some species of fish is is simple to identify a male from a female ie. Rainbows...

 

But how do you determine the sex on say a Pike, or a Walleye (without gutting the fish to find her full of eggs)

 

I understand some fish are still spawning? Due to the late winter.. and would like to ensure I am releasing the females so they can do their duty...

 

So what say you?

If the fish is difficult and stubborn to bring in...its a female.

If it comes in easily and doesnt really seem to care much, its a male.

 

:lol:

 

(j/k ladies, but it was just so wide open for a joke...)

If when you boat the fish its starts regurgitating its food-female model fish

 

If you can see lots of fish but only the occasional one hits, its a guy they wont pass up an easy meal

 

If a fish eyeballs your bait critically but doesnt hit, its a female.
