Male or Female?

I have never caught a thresher. But if I do, how can I tell a male from a female? No jokes please! Well, OK, jokes are good too! but seriously. Diagrams? Pictures? What do claspers look like?

Seems to me nobody really gives crap to anyone keeping any threshers unless they are keeping more than 1 a year......from 4 months ago.

Well after a few hours of this I decided to keep a smaller T instead of one of the breeders. The fish I harvested was 78# and was a male I don’t kill females.
