It'd be interesting to see it's actual age (otolith). Thanks for the gape measurement!
I've got some males that are just now making beds. Some are tagged, so I will try like heck to catch them tomorrow and remove them. The tagged ones I can go back and see how they grew.
I'd like to be able to "see" some fish nesting in my pond. The water is always about 2' visability and the fish undoubtly are just below that or deeper. Wife went out on kayak and could not see any.
I was going to don the scuba today and see if I could go find some. But wind, waves and stormy looking, may take a pass till another day.
