Depends on the state. 12 inches in some, 14 in others. But as a top predator, bass should be released.

Largemouth bass reproduce by laying eggs rather than giving birth to live young. The female lays thousands of eggs in nests built by the male, who then fertilizes them. After a period of incubation, the eggs hatch into fry, which are small fish that develop into juvenile bass.
A large mouth bass produces a large number of eggs to increase the chances of survival for its offspring. Many eggs are laid because natural predators, environmental factors, and competition greatly reduce the number of young that reach maturity. By spawning thousands of eggs, the species ensures that at least some will survive to adulthood, thus maintaining population levels. This reproductive strategy is common among many fish species to enhance reproductive success.

Fly maggots and their eggs could not survive in your large intestine.
Hatch time for fish eggs is completely dependant on the species of fish. Some fish take only a few days, where others can take over a month. by : Jan kosiek
Reptile eggs have a large food supply because they take a long time to hatch
Yes, they do lay eggs and after they hatch, the crocodiles carry them in their mouth and release them in the water, though not many survive.
Arowanas are mouth breeders, that is, the male will carry the fertilized eggs in his mouth and protect the young once they hatch. See the link below for a good overview of this fish's reproductive habits.
Spawning begins when the males fan beds and the females come in to lay their eggs. The males guard the eggs, and then the fry for a week. Total spawn time is around three weeks.
No, absolutely not. Hens sit on their eggs until they hatch. They actually nestle their feathers above and around the eggs and keep them warm, but people say they are sitting or setting on their eggs.
Technically, the question you wanted to ask is "can a large mouth bass produce offspring with a crappie?" "Mating" and "reproduction" are not synonymous. For example, a dog will "mate" (i.e, have sex with) with just about any animal that will have him. Similarly, a large mouth bass could technically "mate" (have sex with) a crappie in that the bass could spread his milk (sperm) over crappie eggs. However, only two animals of the same genus will produce offspring when they mate. The large mouth bass's genus and species is Micropterus salmoides. The white crappie is genus and species Pomoxis annularis. The black crappie is genus and species Pomoxis nigromaculatus. There are others, but you get the drift. The two types of fish are completely different genus and species. Thus, the answer to your real question is no, the sperm from the bass would not fertilize the crappies eggs.
