I stocked the pond on 6-15-10, so it's been just shy of 3 months. The YP were about half the length of the one in the pic(about 3inch when stocked). Is that an ok amount of growth?
Yes very good growth. An inch a month for yellow perch is about as good as it gets.
Hmm, your saying that's pretty good makes me wonder how accurate my figures are??
I was gonna guess just ok.
I need to start keeping better records. I'm gonna make a phone call and see if someone knows how big they were, for sure, at stocking. And get a scale, and..........
Cecil, or anybody who might know, are perch alright with catch and release? I know some fish have a tough time with it, while other don't. Do they get spooked after being caught a time or two?
The christmas tree idea is good. The DNR recommended to me to do that, also. Just haven't got around to it.
