Wanted to give an update on the LCS stocking. A few days ago we found (dead) an adult LCS in the pond outlet. I was not thinking and did not get a measurement, I would guess it was 8-10" long. Today the kids found 3 LCS caught in the straw blanket netting, all would have been born last year and are at the 4" mark. The knife in the picture is 4.8". I would say the LCS stocking was successful which I find surprising as the pond conditions were far from optimal, the initial stocking count was 30 at 1", and I had an introduction of LMB prior to stocking.
