Up at the pond Wednesday. Water temp still at 46. No ribbons. Just curious, will these colder temps have a negative effect on spawn? Other than delaying it? Fish were still hitting the feed aggressively. Supposed to be in the 20s the next several nights. I was figuring it will push timing back a week or two.
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
