Had a few high school students over back when I was still harvesting the pond. Here's a few more pictures. I estimate I have removed about 75 out of the 125 I originally planted at 4 to 8 inches 2 years ago. No idea where the rest went but they are not in the pond. Most likely natural mortality and nourishment for a GBH as I didn't get the entire pond staked in time last year.

Heaviest fish was 6 lbs. 11 oz. And the longest fish was 22 3/4 inches on a board. Not bad for 3 year old fish.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
