Team Ki

This is a short but comprehensive report!

1. We pulled the Big Pond. It took buncha hours and we had a great catered lunch. 

2. All of the original F1 oyagoi were spotted and pulled out of the mud.  

3. John Clark, my friend who pulls the net and makes this project possible, took

700 small fish to grow on. The rest were returned to be pulled again in May.

  
4. Photos:
Pictured shusui is from Hosokai and is one of the original parent fish.

Also pictured, some of my very good F1 ki shusui oyagoi, see Harvest 2015, and

in my hand, a promising 2014 ki shusui. :)

Also, friends gathered, me in my hi-fashion waders sorting fish with John Clark. 
 

5. We will pull the F2s in the LOWER Pond in May 2017.  
 They look beautiful from land, but I am looking forward to bowling them

 and getting a closer look. We hope to breed them in 2018.  

 

Here are miscellaneous photos from the harvest; a couple of ki asagi, some of last years' baby ki shusui growing up, decanting the 2016 flock spawn kiddos, pond refilling now
