I was wondering if yellow perch would be an option for a pond around central/slightly southern Indiana (just south of Indianapolis), or if temperatures get too high. I never see any perch in ponds around the area, just LMB and BG.

Lets call the hypothetical pond in question 3 acres with depths up to 15',and some sort of diffuser/aerator.

Also, if they would survive, would they spawn well and what considerations for spawning habitat should be made.


I am NO LONGER the "Someday" man.

1 pond, half acre or so
