Another update on the yp Rainman delivered a year ago. I didn't see egg strands, I have put minnow traps out a few times with no baby YP found and I haven't seen any obviously yp in stomach contents of lm and I haven't caught any yp. The good news is that my preliminary numbers look like the lm wr are up some, but not much.
Questions: how big would yp fry be now if spawned in February or March?
Would the fry be in similar locations as bg fry of 3-4"?
CMM don't be discouraged we cant catch any small perch in the minnow trap after 4 years. We can only catch them on a small hook in the spring 5-7". Made a few larger minnow traps and still can't catch any minnows. They are in there but different to trap.
