I worry way too much. Water, dam, fish, grass, feeder, you name it. You guys have walked me back off the ledge many times. This weekend, it was all worth it.
Thank you! (We ate YP for dinner both nights.) and "yes" the water is a bit low, but we haven't had rain for two months, so there isn't much I can do about it. Ha!
Grandkids and (Pops) catching YP.

Son in law. With twins..

Granddaughter, (interested in YP, eyes..)

Feeding the fish.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!

Thanks Scott. It has turned out better than I imagined it would. The grand kids could see 100s of small fish (probably FHM, but I'm not sure) swimming along the bank. Lots of chow for the SMB, and HSB.. Sure lit up their eyes..

As long as you don't leave the predators overeat their forage base, it will only get better!!! Glad to watch the progress.
