I stocked some 6-10 inch YP and some larger hybrid Bluegill the other day and they seemed pretty stressed. I acclimated them in bags for about an hour before releasing them, at which point most of the Perch and some of the Bluegill swam down to the bottom and laid there. By the next morning all but a few were gone. The few perch and Bluegill that were still laying there I assumed were dead, but swam off when I tried to retrieve them. This seemed unusual but the Bluegill seem to be doing well. I have seen a few perch cruising around. The spot where I've seen them the most is sitting just beneath the surface in a log jam. Any thoughts on how these fish reacted to being released? I'm also wondering if this is normal behavior for Perch. For those of you who have them, do you see them regularly near the surface or do they mainly stay more towards the bottom?
