A friend has a dam. Built three years ago. has at least 2 dams up the drainage from it. It is also more than a mile from the dam to the top of the drainage, and the over flow from the well goes into the dam. it gets plenty of water.

it is about a 1/4 surfaceacre and he boasts 30 ft deep, id believe 25 ft.

we have put 400 male 3" perch, 50 adult bluegill, 25 adult bass includeing some 4-5 ponders, 18 adult walleye, and 10 smallmaouth bass, in the first years. along with a few gallons of fhm right off the bat.

The walleye had a spawn, but not as well as the bass did. The perch have not (may need to add some females)and we have caught no you BG yet.

But we do catch a lot of GSF and BH!!! Grrrr..

He seems to like the GSF and can not distinguish them from bluegill. But the bull head are annouying.

What are your opinions.


Water is the basis of all life, by design!
