Yeah, that's my guess, that it's some kind of recessive gene. I'm
hoping to get some breeding activity to see how it plays out. I need
some info on sex determination, though, 'cause I don't know if I need
to bring in some wild type fish to have both sexes. Any of you
biologists out there have any knowlege of pickerel sex? Ok, any
non-biologists?
