I can't remember what post but someone asked if you could tell if a yellow perch was close to dropping her egg strand. This one is as close as you get. Sorry it's blurry.



Unfortunately she didn't make it and will be sold frozen to a taxidermist. Apparently she was too far along when she was moved and the stress killed her. Or she may have been one of the few that die every spring at this time due to some problem with passing the egg strand.

BTW the perch and bluegill I moved to the temporary holding pond are feeding well even with the cold water.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
