Rangersedge :

Good question. The timing of when 2in. stocker fish have their initial spawn in a pond is different from south to north. Down here it is not unusual for age 1 fish (LMB and BG born in the spring) to spawn the next ( 2nd) summer. That is not the case up north. From what I understand it will be age 2 before they spawn up north. Bill or CB1 or Theo or Dave or a host of other northern PBers. can answer that question better. If you don't see small LMB or BG fry/yoy then they probably have not spawned in your pond yet. Bob I think uses Solar Bees in his NY project. You might catch a few CC ,BG/RES just to see their size and condition. That would be good to know.
