The emerald shiner was hooked in the belly some how. We chopped him up to catch some of the larger perch and here is a few pictures of some we did catch.
These were all stocked last November at 4-6 inch and seem to be running in the 7-8" range the odd 9.5"er. They did have a light spring spawn as we are catching small 4-5" very slim big eye large mouth perch. Next time we will snag a picture of these little perch.
