Bill, I am pretty sure that the presence of good numbers of 6 to 7" GSH in my pond have significantly reduced recruitment of SMB and YP, is that a bad thing? I'm not sure why my RES bucked that trend last year. Both of the SMB I caught yesterday are not part of my original stockers so I have seen some recruitment, my original SMB stockers should have no problem eating 6 to 7" GSH.
