Ribbons sighted 3//26/17. I believe I missed the first ribbons that were laid. Up at the pond this morning, for about two hours. Then back home. I have not been there for a few weeks. I found five ribbons along the north bank, which is the dam. All in the western end. Then I found two additional ribbons on the south end, near the inlet in the eastern most corner. Water temps were fairly warm. I had a reading of 58.1 degrees down by most of the ribbons, in about 10" of water just a few feet from shore. Water temp off th dock on the south west side of the pond was 54 degrees, 10' from shore, and 12" deep.
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
