Had a couple spawning questions...first, when the females start to go shallow for the spawn, do they generally go to the beds right away or is there a period of time (a day or two) where they stay shallow, feed up, and get ready to get on the beds? Second, once the females move up and onto the beds, how long are they typically there before they move off the beds and enter that post-spawn cycle? The places I fish don't have very clear water, so the only part of the spawn I ever see is occasionally seeing a female on a bed, or seeing the male guarding fry up really shallow.
