Will SMB do a late spawn like RES??? I don't know. I had RES on beds recently.

I have often wondered if the late spawning RES were the ones just maturing enough to spawn. Maybe they were not fully mature earlier in the season when most adults spawn. Don't know.

I was really surprised at all the SMB fingerlings I have where I only stocked 6-9" SMB around the first of December last year. I figured it would be next year before a potential spawn but I have lots of 3-4" SMB fingerlings.
