Okay, this will probably sound dumb, but I've seen conversation here about using kiddie pools for QT or fry tanks. Now, I don't usually see any fry until their at least an inch long, and then they are nearly impossible to catch. If I spend an hour in the pond with seining net and a foating bait basket I will come away with three or four, but by then the pond is a mess from me tromping through it in waders. How the heck do you catch the fry to put them into a different pool?

I WISH YOU LUCK IN CATCHING THEM, BUT...
in the future i would suggest...DONT CATCH THE FRY...use spawning mops and move the EGGS to a safe hatchery / nursery pond. eggs are so much easier to catch!!! lol
justt a note: you probably should have posted this in the next section down....its for "spawning" and fry care
