Did a feeding yesterday at the neighborhood pond. The Golden Shiner Brigade seems to be on vacation right now and not visible.

Plenty of bluegill feeding along with some HSB, CC, BC, and a random YP.

My LMB don't seem to be hitting feed anymore, or at least at greatly reduced rates.

No real vegetation in the pond, so the FA is raging.


QUESTION: I did see several LMB that were 2-2.5" long. Could these LMB be from the 2022 spawn? I would not think they could possibly be 2023 YOY.

"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
