Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Creating the food chain Will Golden Shiners spawn in the Fall

They are large enough to be mature. You could see a spawn or two this summer. """ Spawning season for the golden shiner begins in late spring when water temperatures reach 70 F. In many Midwestern areas they will spawn from May to August. Spawning takes place in shallow water over some type of rooted aquatic vegetation or filamentous algae. The eggs are adhesive and stick to the vegetation. There is no nesting or parental care of the eggs or hatchlings."""
