Definitely look like YP eggs to me too!
I have a question that maybe Cecil or someone else can answer?

We always see the eggs around our pond, mostly on the east and North east sides. We have a variety of fish including Suckers in there and never see any YP fry. Is there a way to scoop the eggs and hatch them somehow without leaving them vulnerable to other fish attacks?
I was thinking of using something like window screen material to make up a box to place over them in the water. Would this sort of thing work? We do not have a second pond to transfer them to.
Thanks
