Ron, last week I caught some YP in a customers pond. 25% of the YP had already spawned. Yes, they are early this year. This is in Northern Indiana.

I bet the smb will be early this year too. Just my luck they will get started and shutdown because of a cold snap. Im all set up and ready for them this year .lol.

NE Missouri and I had found one ribbon last week. Visited the pond the last few days and there are now five ribbons. The last three years I haven’t seen more than a couple of ribbons. It’s been cold the last few days, but they don’t seem to be slowing down.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.

Saw a couple of ribbons very early, about 3/5. Was disappointing to see just 3. Then around 3/29 a dozen more showed up. Really early for sure! I’m not even certain if those first few were even earlier as I wasn’t really looking.
