Tracy, aren't you close to Flame, and Shelby County? I think y'all are about 90 miles south of us, and I was wondering if you saw CNBG beds in January too? (EDIT: TRACY, JUST SAW YOUR POST)I think the full moon was around the 12th of Jan, and I know you guy's water had to be warmer than ours.
Eric, the reason I was asking about the CNBG fry survivability time table, was that the guys just south of us may very well have had that January spawn. What I can't find any ballpark info about how long it takes once the female lays her eggs, before the fry swim off and the male abandons the nest.
I checked the Nacogdoches TX weather history for
January 12th , and it was pretty interesting. After weather in the teens on the 9th, there was a very quick and dramatic warmup to the 70's, that lasted at least 5 days before it dropped off a little.
I may have to rethink my previous November spawn statement, and I'm good with that.
