Today I released 400 3-4 inch LMB into the pond. They spent about an hour in a 20 foot or so area then began to wander off. Hopefully they enjoy their surroundings. There are scads of small BG fry so they should have plenty to munch on.

Now, for you pond experts, my wife had a question on growth rates. How fast will those fish grow and when will they be mature enough to spawn? I said, in a very sure manner, "I dunno, I'll ask"

Any thoughts?
