Net samples for 2020 have began. Set nets last night and the first run today is in the books.
Day 1 doesn't usually tell much except today I caught 3 of my "small" saugeye...23" 24.75" and a 3rd just shy of 27"
wasn't expecting to see those!
I won't bore anyone with numbers but had many nice YP from 5 to 13.75" and still stuck in that 89-94 WR range.
My BG and BGxRES are pushing up to 9.25" and all Lepomis from today averaged 122% WR.
No big GSH, only 2 crawfish.
4 SMB from basically 12'-14.25". Wr on these is still showing high 110's
A few HSB stocked early spring but no specimens in nets yet.
6 days to go so anything can happen. I'll post any surprises and total data compilation of end of sets for thos besides myself that find this interesting.
A couple of picks to follow.
