Well I coaught my first LMB from the 25 I stocked in March of 2011 it is about 16". I didn't get a pic of it since was almost dark.
I think my LMB are spawning right now.
I have been breaking/clipping one fin of the little BG that I'm catching since I need to remove about 15 pounds of BGG this year from what I've been told here does that sound like a good way to help accomplish that goal.
I know that three of my LMB have died here is a pic of one that I found on 26 Mar 2012.
