Hermafrodite crayfish

 Has any one here seen a hermafrodite crayfish before? 

Just asking as we got one this morning, would that mean they could fertilise their own eggs, or would they be infertile?

 

what is your opinions?

 I'm never going fishing there again, no fish, no how are you going, caught anything? And too many people saying go away pretty much. I'm gonna stick to saltwater fishing for now! I don't know about kingfisha tho

 Have caught a few when I was on the pro boats.. Maybe 1 a week or something so certainly not unheard of but fairly rare..

As for eggs and what not I have no idea..

Tar spots.

Can't recall hermaphrodite crays, but have seen a few tar spotted males. Always wondered what the fisheries would say when they saw the tarspot?
