Good question - caught the first 14" fish 3 years ago, each Winter I pop one or two more in the 14" range. This girl here was actually 14.5 or more - just didn't get that great a photo I wanted to get her back in ASAP.

I'm assuming these are original fish stocked as 3-4" age 0 in September 2008. I know I have some limited recruitment - but again, it's pretty limited.
