Hi, I have caught some fry of my pond at home in Austria (Europe). I do not know if they are largemouth bass, but I think they are. So that would be very fine if my bass did spawn! Here two pictures: Please, can you help me do identify this fry!!!

Neptun, what other fish species are in the pond? That might help identify the fry as well if they aren't LMB.

Neptun, Here is a baby LMB. I think it was around 20 millimeters. In the Centrarchidae(Sunfish) Family the preanal length is equal to or less than the postanal length. They also have around 25-30 myomeres or muscle segments but that is hard to tell without a microscope. It is not a member of the minnow(Cyprinidae) family or the sucker(Catostomidae) family.

ewest: bass on your picture are much bigger than my fry. I will watch the fry at my lake growing... maybe I can catch some small fish in 2 weeks again. Than I hopefully can see the typical dark strap! other species in the lake: Zander (similar to walley) Perch that`s it. here are two detail photos from the fry: look at the back fin (it seems typical for LMB, I think) look at the 2 dorsal fins
