When I stocked them, the bluegill were 1-1 1/2 inches. Same for the bass, maybe 2 inches or so.
Judging by the eggs in the bass I caught and the water temp, I would assume that the ones that had eggs spawned, but I am yet to see any bass fry.
If I were to stock some threadfin shad at this time of the year, would any spawn? Or would they just be a supplemental snack for the bass?
We have a hatchery about an hour away that only delivers shad via their transport truck $325 per 1000 plus delivery fee.
The water temp this weekend was in the mid-60s
I guess I am worried any forage will be eaten before it gets a chance to reproduce, but that is always the case. But that may be a good thing, just costly.
