I went fishing last week and noticed bluegill are on beds and spawning like crazy. No blue gill spawning in my pond I have several mature bluegill but this is their first spring in my pond. It looked like in early April they may have started to fan beds but seem to have stopped. I even went for a swim and could not locate any spawning.

The cichlids in the pond have started reproducing in March so just curious if anyone has any insight on what my BG are waiting for. I have probably 150 adult fish I bucket stocked in the fall. Here are some of the fry being protected by the parents if anyone is interested.

Maybe they are waiting to get fat on cichlid fry! Was it just me or were the BG circling the Cichlid nest like sharks. There is a really good view of a BG coming in and taking a fry at 1:46 to 1:47. To see it better you can slow down the video to 1/4 speed in the settings

Great, now we are going to have a bunch of Bluegills joining Pond Boss as new members.

I can see them now, telling their buddies, "If you go on this Pond Boss site they publish how-to videos showing the best way to capture a tasty meal!" grin

"However, I must warn you, it is a bit of a fetish site. They talk about BG sex, a lot!" laugh
