I've not caught any recently either.

Wish I could tell the little 2" ones. Some of the 3" fingerlings I caught in the minnow trap could see a tiny dot on the ear flap. All I am catching in the traps right now are smaller and I can't tell the RES from the CNBG.

In my pre-sediment pond (20x40') I put 4, 5-6" RES in there early summer from the sediment pond and one male went right on a nest. Trapping lots of 1" somethings out of there now, but can't tell if they are RES or CNBG that swam upstream from the sediment pond last high water event. Sure wish I could tell what I am getting. Kind of wish I had not put the CNBG in the sediment pond and just the RES, then I would have known.
