Prepping for vacation. Pulled all of the traps from the cow pond. Released the captive RES back into the pond.
Took some BG catfishing on the MO Saturday. The survivors went into the bait pond.

Mrs. Augie has been after me to hook and line some BG for a fish fry. She will get her wish next week.

All RES/YP/HSB/SMB that are caught will go back in. All BG <9" will come out. It's my hope that a handful of jumbo BG will keep the smaller
specimens off the beds, and result in lower overall numbers of YOY coming out of the spawn.

Someone please correct me if I'm thinking wrong there.
