I have been noticing for the last couple of weeks fish coming to the surface (ripples). Come to find out these are perch. I have never seen perch come to the surface before?? Has anybody else seen this?
If they're feed trained they may be more likely to be conditioned to surface feed if they were fed floating feed. Is it during low light periods?
My perch are conditioned to feed in the evening just before dark. That's when they come up. However I am training them to feed in the morning instead to allow for more condusive water chemistry parameters in the morning vs. the evening. This is due to my high density of fish.
