Chad, you may be right and you know the pond/area better than I do.
I guess I'm looking at my own experience with a one acre pond that got clobbered by drought. When the water got down to about one ft., I had a DO crash that I thought killed almost everything. No bass hit, even on minnows. No BG came to pellets. I went to Lusk and got a couple hundred 4 inch CNBG and they have worked great. However, I'm also seeing native BG that I thought were all gone. And, I'm catching LMB up to about 1.5 pounds from what I thought was a barren pond.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
