Dave,
They were probably 1-1.5 inches in March as fingerlings. They are probably less than 3" now. My LMB have gone from about 2.5 to 7-8 inches. Based on some reading I have done I am thinking that putting in a few (10-15 8"+) mature BG may encourage these little guys to quit thinking about spawning and start growing. But don't want to disrupt the establishment of the food chain.

Will the larger BG devastate the forage fish (FHM, Shiners, Ruby Reds) I am seeing tons of new fry around pond.
