Your initially stocked 100 perch are very little predation threat to any fingerlings stocked this fall or spring. Those 100 YP are too busy eating very easy to catch fathead minnows rather than eating a few sportfish fingerlings that you will stock.

I wanted you to catch a few of the fish that you stocked this spring so you (we) had some idea of how well they grew in the murky water. Murky water usually slows down the growth (depending) of sight feeding sportfish.
