I agree it has been tougher to weed through the undersized fish for me as well. Last Monday 04/12 was the last time I fished. The males were in shallow and in full tuxedos and I caught quite a few - most in the 10" range, I backed off the beds and checked deeper water and deeper structure and caught some nice size females 11-13", they appeared to have some eggs but did not look as plump as a few days earlier. I was not keeping fish that day so just guessing on the eggs by looking at them.
