What is thw best wat to carch small fry
Xref: news7 rec.ponds:104795
We have had several spawning of Koi this spring and have noticed a couple dozen small Koi ranging from 1/2 Inch to almost 2 inches..................... would like to catch them while they are young........Will a minnow trap work or does any one have a good method of catching them?.....at this rate it won't take long before we are over populated.

I use a minnow trap and bait it with kitty treats, anything with a strong odor and fishy-chicken flavor works for us. k30a |

The minnow trap can be a 3 litre pop bottle with a mesh bag around it and a
2" hole in the side. Fast, cheap, effective for babies that will fit the moth of the bottle. Bait it with fish food or kitty food.

J OK I'll give it a try.................. will have to find some small mesh as I saw some of the new fry today that weren't much bigger around than a toothpick.. maybe I'll have to let them grow for a while.
