Stocked it last May with : 150 perch 100 Red Eared Sunfish 25 walleye All around 4"-5" Perch are 9"-12" now Red Earded Sunfish are 6" now Walleye 14" now Put in 50 4" smallmouth early last November, hadn't seen one since. I thought I had maybe been seeing some while feeding but they are so fast I wasn't sure. Around 8" so far Goal is for this to mostly be a smalle/perch pond

I'm waiting to see SMB in my neighbor's pond which we stocked with YP and other fish in addition to SMB. Seems like pretty good growth for this fish. 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."
