They were stocked last spring. Prolly 1-2 inchers.
I've been seeing something hitting the top of the water the last couple of weeks, not unusual, my BGs do it during feeding but this was considerably bigger. Like somebody threw a housecat in the water. I finally got to see one... barely. Near the top of the water in a rocky area that I have at the bank. I could swear it was 8-10 inches?!?
What should I be expecting for growth? My year and a half old BGs are almost hand sized.

Jeff-

1 acre pond, slopes to 15ft depth. Has BG and few LMB plus a half dozen pesky sliders.
