Big Problem. What options do I have? - 06/01/03 02:35 AM
I just got back from fishing more in my 1/2 acre pond. I haven't had any luck fishing it for the longest time. I caught 2 small minnows that I couldn't identify. After a little running around to the fisherman of the family, we found out they are bowfin (dogfish). I know there are some people out there that are quite fond of them, but most people around here dislike them. From what I've read so far, they are very much a predator fish, and will eat most everything in the pond (including 250 bluegill minnows that i put in last fall). I want to get rid of them, but I dont want to chemically kill the pond out. What other options are there?
