I was curious to after viewing the size of the YP in my above photos, what can I expect in size without supplemental
feeding for those females to get? Very open question I understand, but anyone with experience of YP growth rate in
their pond, I would be happy to hear what they found for growth and what I could possibly expect in the future. I would
love to supplemental feed, but it would be nonsense to do with the GSF still very present in the pond. Also, with the
size of the juvenile YP shown in above photos, would any of you be confident to say that is indeed recruited fish? The
smallest perch I stocked 2 years ago were 4-6 inch fish, so my thinking is these are proof of reproduction has taken
place. I'm surprised as I would think the GSF would've eaten any kind of perch fry. Can anyone enlighten me on what
Their thoughts are on this?
