I don't know about a spawning run but in March I put tree branches around the pond and in late march and April the perch come to the branches and deposit there eggs. Then the male comes over and fertilizes them if he can find them. Haven't got any small ones yet I think the Bass and gills keep them thinned out pretty much...

Thanks Dick.....totally agree with you......the spawning run in my region is normally January into February so we 'll start chasing a few soon......
