Believe it or not, those fish are the harvestable, keeper slot size perch. All larger perch are released for continued growth. Some days it is a challenge to catch the keeper sized fish. In addition to mannual thinning of eggs and YOY perch, I have a few walleye/saugeye in the pond to help reduce the 3"-7" perch.
Bill how long ago did you stock the walleye/sauger? You haven't stocked any in a while have you?
