We were fishing in the RES/SMB pond where SMB were originally stocked. I would guess the one she caught to be an original stocked fish.

We caught and transferred probably 75 total now to other ponds. Mainly our main 3 acre pond but also some to the old refurbished pond. We catch SMB regularly now out of the main pond also.

We finally have gotten some recruitment of LMB in our main pond so I suspect by next year we will be harvesting both LMB and SMB before they become too plentiful. If they haven't already.

This RES/SMB pond really cranks out the SMB recruits. Whatever I accidentally did right, they sure do spawn in this pond.
