We have a good number of clients in east Georgia off of I-20, and one client in South Carolina so we go through Augusta 5-6 times a year for him. Best time to shock is when we get some warm weather in the spring before it gets too terribly hot. You definitely want to get the pond back in balance before stocking any F1 bass but keep them in mind for the future (may have to do some research to find adult F1 bass for a good price). We stock our shad in April just before they spawn. Shortly after stocking they will spawn ensuring that they establish themselves in the pond. Feel free to call us if you are interested in shocking the pond. We can schedule it out when we are going through Augusta to help out on the mileage cost. I am normally out on the road so if I am not in the office ask for Greg Grimes. Thanks-Matt
