If I still have 1,000 of them in the pond in November, I'll still be catching them. I'll look for the egg mass then. In the mean time, how do you tell male from female?
Going to keep the feeder going until the water temp drops to 55.
Going to eat perch for the first time tonight. (Lightly spiced, and cooked on the grill.)


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
