I fed yellow perch hydrated feed in my trophy pond yesterday even though water temps was only in the 40's. I had some come completely to the top. In a matter of days the first ones may be dropping their eggs.
It's time to catch five females from that pond and 15 males from another and put them in a floating cage with a Christmas tree to do their thing.
Temps will be consistent highs in the 50's, 60's, and one day about 70 now.
Model unanimity about the warm weather dominating the next two weeks continues; estimates put average 6-10 day temps nearly 20-degrees above normal
