OK thanks for the info. I will probably not try raising them this year. I am way behind on the farm work do to all the rain we are getting. But June is a long ways away so maybe. I did put some in a year and half ago. They were fun to catch the first fall. They grew from 3 to 4 inches to 7 or 8 in 4 months. They would come form a long ways to hit a lure. Did not get to fish much last year, we got a lot of rain 1 or 2 times a week all summer.
