Today I managed to fish a couple of hours, exactly a week after the last time.
As soon as I got to the pond I immediately noticed something different than a week ago. There were dozens of 6" to 10" LMB almost everywhere just below the water surface hunting.
The other strange thing is that in 2 hours I only caught 5 11" and 1 14" LMB.
I don't understand where the bigger ones are gone. Maybe spawning?
However, talking about relative weights and data, I also noticed that so far I have fished so many LMB of all sizes between 10 and 17 inches except for those at 13".
I also noticed that only the LMB under 10", and not all, come to feeder. Even the 12" ones that I stocked last fall and that were pellets trained are no more coming after winter stop.
Does this also happen to you or do they all come to feed pellets?
