Existing Pond with house purchase - 05/17/13 05:08 PM
Just bought a house and it came with a 1 acre pond. The dam side is 25ft deep .. I have caught bluegill, black crappie, and largemouth bass and have seen catfish.
Questions?
Should I fish the crappie out? Ive only caught 2 and about 6in long.
Every time I throw out a bobber with a worm on it, it goes under in about 5 sec with about a 5 - 6 inch bluegill on the line. Should I be keeping these out?
The bass are all about 8-16in long. No really fat ones yet.I would love to get some really fat monsters! Any ideas?
Catfish Ive seen have been quite large. Only seen 2
We are getting ready to get the cat tails around the edge cleared out with a backhoe. Any ideas on keeping these out? And any suggestions on putting anything in for fish cover? I would also like to install a dock.. When is the best time to do this and how ? Also! I have one very steep bank that has some erosion into the pond... How should I get this fixed???
That is all
Great info on this site and everyone looks like really nice folks!
