snub, a client had a pond that he was planning on making into a SMB/RES/YP pond. He took things slow, stocked FHM and GHS, let them by happy for a year, then added YP and RES. Right before the SMB were due to go in we noticed fish chasing minnnows in the shallows. ?????

I pulled out 2 LMB that were between 12" and 13" long. There's no way that they could have been in the pond to grow that big before being noticed earlier. The pond is roughly 1/2 mile from any other house.

I'd bet a couple of kids bucket stocked them when nobody was around, he's an absentee landowner. That wiped out over 2 years of waiting for the right time to stock SMB. It was drained and rotenoned and is sitting now with FHM and GSH in it.
