Thanks for the reply Bill and Eric,
My YP strings are looking awful white now (I managed to get home for a weekend to check) I suspect they are not going to hatch. Appreciate the pond notes Eric, your pond sounds great. I have posted previously about trying to get the LMB out of my pond to stock YP and SMB. My neighbor has a smaller pond and his YP are doing excellent. I think I am going to do the unthinkable, (per forum responses) and drain it down Rotenone the 12 mature and ### fingerling LMB, and refill and stock this fall when the SMB are available. A drawdown will also give me time to work on structure. Had to look up info on the Scuds, sounds interesting, with my hard water, their outer shell may end up more like zebra mussels.
