I'm getting a good response from my bluegills and yellow perch in cages in the last two days up here in northern Indiana. Air temps have gone up to the high 60's and low 70's. Water temps going above 50 F. again.
Anyone else?
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

My indoor bluegill were eating like crazy today. They trained about three weeks faster than last year...I'd assume because the indoor water temps are in the mid-60's instead of the mid-50's.

YP in my basement started taking freeze-dried krill at the surface yesterday. No more earthworms, and I start putting Aquamax in with the krill tomorrow.

My pond's temp was 49 degrees today, and bluegill and HSB were hitting feed hard. There were some other fish feeding also, but I couldn't tell what they were.
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

The Bardello's in the cage have never stopped feeding. I'm throwing in a handful or so of 500 mid-morning, and again mid afternoon and a few are eating. There is a cluster of little fish outside the cage as well, that nibble on the pellets as they soften (I usually miss getting all the pellets in the cage). There are LMB outside the cage that are picking on the small fish. I haven't been able to catch any of the ones outside the cage to identify them. I don't know if they are little Bardello's that escaped thru the mesh in the cage, if they are small GSH or FHM.
