Hi everyone,

I am seeking advice on a type fish that is in my newly stocked pond. Thinking Green Sunfish!!!

Details are I built the pond last year and is just under 2 acres. I have aeration running 24/7, water depth is around 3' to 12' deep in a couple of holes, feeding AM 3 times daily with AM 300 & 500 mixed together.

In late January I stocked the pond with 1000 CNBG, 500 Native BG, 300 Redear & 10 lbs of FHM. I purchased the fish from a local fish farm in Maurice Louisiana.

In late May I stocked 75 Native LMB, 25 Camelot LMB, 25 CC, 18 HSB & 50 Native BG from Overton's.

I started fishing to see what I could bring up and I think I am catching Green Sunfish almost every cast. They have great big pot bellies, very healthy, 3-4" long.

I'm almost certain I got them from the local fish hatchery but my question is can these fish be managed? I only wish to entain the thought of a total fish kill since I will not be able to get my hands on additional Camelot bass so what are my options at this poimt?

I built me a fish trap yesterday and plan to drop it in the pond today and start removing what I can. I welcome all advise, thoughts and comments.

Thanks in advance
