This is alot to take in. I love it!
I'm gonna stick with Todd's recommendation of holding off on the Tilapia. I'll get with him and see how we look next spring. This was further reinforced yesterday when I was out at my lake. I spotted thousands and I mean thousands of FH fingerlings in the shallows and around the drop offs. (I didn't see any BG going after them but that doesn't mean anything.) I am utterly amazed at the numbers and how quickly they breed. I have some bales of hay that I sunk in the lake (which have drifted around during storms)and around them I spotted a few FH males guarding what I figured were nests because they went after anything that came near , other fish, bugs, etc.
The reason I bring all this up is because the young LMB are gonna have plenty to fill their guts with!
Don't FH spawn every 28 days? Also, when do BG spawn and at what age/ length?
By the way, I stated in a previous post that my clarity was at 18". After looking, I take that back. It's actually closer to 2'. Not sure if that really matters but we'll see.
