Experts, where do RES hang out in reference to their spawning circle? Bluegill tend to hover over the middle but how about RES?


I'm no expert, but our RES act very similar to BG. The larger males will usually choose a central location for a nest, while the smaller individuals are relegated to the perimeter.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
