Hello.
I can't wait to see the difference between Yellow-perch and Smallmouth bass.
Eggs retrieval.
Eggs size difference.
The color of the fertilized eggs.
If there is a difference in the rearing of the larvae from spring to autumn.
If it is true that it is easier to raise Smallmouth bass from eggs than Yellow-perch.
If it is true that the Smallmouth bass is less shy than Yellow-perch, to come and eat by hand and other stuff that I already do with the yellow-perch.
A+

Azteca - Do you know how much ice thickness you now have on your larger perch pond? How much snow is on the ground? Do remove snow off the ice?.

Does the aerator run continuous in winter? How deep is the diffuser placed in winter?

I have YP, SMB, HSB, BG, RES and I am working at getting all the LMB out of the pond. The handle on this ice skimmer is 12" long, no the YP wasn't weighed nor measured, a neighbor caught it and released it. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/jiyo0wy.jpg)

Nice! In a year or two, you guys may need to buy the next larger size of ice auger.

I picked up a couple but haven't had a chance to try them on the ice yet.
