That is why a simple structure called a "spawning bench" increased the number of bass fry in pond where it was installed. It took a while for biologists to figure out why it worked, but they eventually concluded it simply gave a flat wall for the male bass to put his back to when he was defending the nest.

That's exactly what was going on here. Their all had their nests right up against the bulkead. Not so dumb those bass.
