magnolia crappie

[Trump]

was watching the crappie kings show a week or so ago and the guy caught what he called a magnolia crappie.  said it was i cross between a black and white crappie.  looked like a white crappie but had a black bar that ran length ways on the head to tail then chin to belly it was awesome looking and he was pumped when he caught it.  said it was the 2nd hes seen and first he caught in umpteen years of fishing crappies.  anybody heard of or caught one

I've seen a few, there is actually an Illinois member that caught one during a tourney and posted a pic during this past week. If I can find the thread I'll post a link.

Here it is:

Never heard the term magnolia crappie, I've known them as black nose crappie.
