The boy was catching some perch for our fish fry this weekend. such a late spring here in Ontario Canada that we had to push the fry for mothers day back to this weekend. Our perch do not hit any live bait or other until they have finished spawning. The odd small male but females will not take bait until after they spawn in the spring. Then you can't keep them off the hook.
The one picture of the flip flop is my sons shoe that is 13"s in size. These were OG stockers that were 6-8" in 2013.
Love to see the YP. I’d never even seen one until Rainman brought in some for my pond. Mighty tasty!! (We stocked ours in 2015).
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. Otter attack in 2023
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
