Feel free to put in anything you can find from scientific sources here guys, or just talk about your own experience as to differences in the spawning cycles.

I guess a general question here would be: In your experience, when does the spawn begin, when does it generally end, and what do you think has happened in the years when you notice it's a little different than others?

I realize answers will vary by region, but it would be nice to have some general answers here for the new guys who are worried about what they catch and what they take home. thanks, guys.
