How old would you say a 3/4" BG fry is? I netted some out this morning and was wondering if this is from this year's spawn or could it be left over from late last year.

I had a near total spring turnover kill in 2014 where apparently only a few BG fry survived. I thought it was a total kill until this year's flooding turned up some 4-5" BG trapped in the spillway pools. The first BG I restocked was some 1-4" BG in April of this year which I haven't seen hardly any sign of since. I've also observed no BG nests. I'm in east central Missouri.
