Surprised yes, but it is possible. IF he is in southern IN they had eggs 12-16 days ago. In warmer water temps 55F-65F, eggs would hatch in 5-6, maybe 7 days which would make the fry 5-8 days old. Growing at 1mm per day could produce 11-12mm YP. Normally YP fry do not hang out near shore and mostly remain off shore in open water feeding on zooplankton until they are larger 1"-2", then they move more near shore in fairly large schools.
