It seems like some local fishermen tend to offer some of the lunkers (LMB) they catch to new pond owners as a good gesture. I could see this happening in my case as well. I assume this is not a good idea for a brand new pond (5 acres), even though it could be introducing some good genetics. If I am correct at what point is it ok to accept some of these big boys. I don't want to offend anyone by not accepting their thoughtful gift, but I also don't want to screw up my ponds food chain.
