I put my 1/4 inch mesh wire minnow trap out in about 18" of water, baited with chunks of dog food (fish food too small). Just took it up. In four hours I caught five BG from 3/4 inch to 1.5". Guess that proves a successful spawn. Edit: used a gallon glass trap this evening and trapped a few even smaller BG. I think these should be probably 6" to 7" in a year.
