Thank you Bill! We are going through a nasty weather stretch, but when we have a nice sunny day I will get out and take a measurement. I have called a bunch of the hatcheries on my list, and most of them are shut down or don't answer. I think my list was old. If i am going to make a spring planting i need to get my order in.

Would a fresh water shrimp be a better forage option than crayfish? I don't want them to muddy up the water or compete with the forage base for the YP.
