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.
