Well, this is my first post on the pond boss forums. Just some general info: I'm a sophmore in high school, wanting to renovate my old pond and raise and catch some trophy fish, I'm an FFA member, I like the outdoors and sports. I feel this forum can be an asset to me.
Thanks!!

What size would you like to grow them to being in Nebraska? I would guess LMB to a size of 4-6 lbs and maybe channel cat a little larger than that.

You're correct. The CC can get probably a max weight of 15-20 lbs.

I'm almost the same latitude as Lincoln and I have CC in the pond that are over 16#. I pulled one out a few days ago that was 4 years old, 25" and 9.1#. I do feed the fish in the pond AM 600.
