Is it just my imagination but I've not seen the usual crappie numbers dying off from spawn shock. Maybe one or two here n there but not large numbers. Or did I just miss it?

You are correct. I'm at the lake a few days a week and never saw the numbers as in past yrs.

So is that a good thing or bad thing? Did they not spawn or did they spawn and not die? And why?

Could be the cooler spring temperatures and thus cooler water temperatures as compared to previous years. The last few years the we seemed to go from winter almost right into summer without a gradual change. This year, although winter hung around too long again, it never really got oppressively hot for an extended period of time. It's been a pleasant spring but the heat is on now. Perhaps the last couple years the combination of spawn shock with abnormal water temps contributed to most....In fact I thought someone explained the kill similarly here in the forum (last year or the year before) when folks were theorizing everything from weed spraying to drilling out on Little Conestoga Road was the cause.
