I was considering adding pea gravel for spawning habitat to a shoreline and I am wondering what might be the best location.
Has anyone noticed if bass or bluegill prefer a certain location in a pond to spawn. I have read alot of information about the depth that they prefer, but I have not seen any information about the north shore vs. the south shore, sunny vs. shady locations, or steep dam slopes vs shallow slopes.
Is the pea gravel even helpful at all?
My bluegill are only one year old, about 5" and I have not seen any nests, so I don't know what to expect.
Any observations or comments are appreciated.
