Thanks Eric! These are mostly pellet fed fish that were caught on pellets. I have quite a few RES and SMB taking (non-hydrated) pellets off the surface every night.
All of my RES have been difficult to catch ever since this years hatch started reaching a 1" size or better. From late May until mid July I saw newly hatched fry along the banks each an every week, water temps have been very favorable for spawning this year.
