Removed 37 GSH from 9 to 11" today via a light wire #14 hook with a piece of Optimal Jr wedged between barb and shank. Surprisingly, I had 3 SMB between 11-14" take a piece of Jr too.
Interesting! Floating? Weighted? Just curious. Thanks
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
