Perfect Pond is good. I also like Raising Trophy Bass by Lusk. Although an entry level book, I still refer to it.

The most comprehensive I've seen is Small Impoundment Management in North America by Wes Neal and Dave Willis. It's the most comprehensive textbook I've seen and is at University level. You name it and it's in there.

The best thing about the books is that they answer questions that you don't know enough to ask.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
