Snipe,
Congrats on your impending Saugeye success!
1.) Recruiting better in ponds compared to walleye is a pretty low bar. What type of recruitment might people expect in ponds from 0.5 to 5 acres?
2.) What are the geographic restraints for survival? (Southern limits?)
3.) What are the geographic restraints for thriving? (Southern limits?)
4.) Does their excellent reputation for good control of small panfish also apply to crappie? I am envisioning getting a good crappie population established in a pond for a few years, and then stocking a fairly large number of Saugeye to hammer the crappie recruitment and eat any stunted crappie.
Imagine how good the table fare would be from a pond with large crappie AND large saugeye!
