Snatch her out & take a peek. She maybe ready now.

If the fish is still in water they can spit the eggs from there mouth. So if you were to quickly net her and pull her straight out of the water there will be less of a chance for spitting fry and or eggs. To see if they are ready to be stripped you can carefully pry he mouth open some in a well lite area and take a peak.
