A customer needed to reduce some of the fish biomass in his 1/2 acre pond. We will do the same thing within 7-10 days. It was a marathon fish cleaning session as he hasn't cleaned any fish in a long time and was trying to re-learn how to do it. Dull knives, small fish cleaning space, etc. all made for a 4+ hour cleaning session. That and I was trying to teach him how to fillet all over again. He was getting the hang of it by the time we finished, and he's got a Bubba Fillet Knife on order. That will be here tomorrow.
We caught (in the span of 2 1/2 hours) the following:
12 Yellow Perch, all between 12.5" and 13.25" in length, from 1# to 1.35#
8 LMB One 1 1/4#, all the rest between 4# and 4.2#, all were 18"-19" long
35 HBG, all between 9.25"-10.25", and between 1# - 1.2#
2 HSB both right at 4# and IIRC 21" or so.
All fish were caught on a redworm or a 1/64th oz pink jig head and a wax worm. All 2.5'-3' below the surface.
