Thank you Tim. If it was stocked early April then that is good and those probably made it without issue. The one mid March does puzzle me. It was locked up pretty tight, I live in Candlewood Acres and am at the beach alot. The water level was still down a bit as well. The ramp they stock at is very shallow and there isn't a drop for a good 200-300 feet off. We saw dead fish get eaten when it thawed a bit and they were feeding for a good 4-5 days so my round about 50 is just what we probably saw being eaten. I would guess that early stocking had a very little survival rate at all. Again just don't know why they would of chose there when the low water and thick ice, obviously didn't work.

And sorry for the negative reaction you guys do the best you can , just hurts seeing that and would of thought a deeper spot would of made sense.
