Call me anything you want. Facts remain the facts, good or bad, - irregardless. I make mistakes just like everyone else. I stand behind what I am responsible for. As always "It all depends".
GW - I have a neighbor that back in May built a fish cage (1/2 mesh, 34" in diameter and internal volume of 21.5 cu ft) as per my instructions in Mar-Apr PBoss Mag. As a novice and first time fish cage raiser he put 70 YP 3"-7" long in the cage. Currently YP are doing just great, all feeding well and growing. Feed trained fingerling LMB would be easier to raise than the untrained perch caught from the pond. In Part II of the "fish in a cage raising article", I note that the difficulty factor of raising LMB and yellow perch are very similar. John G should not have a problem raising 25 fingerling LMB in a cage using LMB that have been fed trained. His biggest problem will be feeding them 5-7 times a week.
