strange things in my pond? - 06/15/07 08:13 PM
Whenever I'm out sitting on my dock or fishing in my boat, every once in a while there will be school of sunfish out in the middle (12 acre pond) that come to the surface of the water and they will all be bunched together splashing. At first I didn't know that it was sunfish until fishing one evening I chased this strange thing down. I've seen it many times. I thought that they were spawing or maybe after some baby fry or something. I never see any fry but the sunfish will see me and then take off with a big splash. Now the way I understand sunfish, they spawn in the shallow areas with beds, right? Not out in deep water (12 feet).
But what is this splashing school of sunfish doing?
