    And out of all of those fry you showed us, only a small fraction will survive the first few months, less will survive the first year and the tiniest fraction will make it beyond the first 2-3 years of life. Trophy Class smallies take 7-9 years up north. and they only live about 15 years on average.
    Just some food for thought.. That 17.75" fish you caught and released was probably born in 2013....and the 18.5" one probably 2012 or earlier..

    • @thecreekcrawler
      @thecreekcrawler  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      yea but its a good sign to see the banks holding thousands of fry! the Great Miami is a fantastic smallmouth fishery! they get pretty old that 18" fish looked very old. I would guess in the upper teens
