And as stated in other posts...pictures are required grin


I agree here.... here....

80 acres is huge. Trap net and fish all over the pond. Make sure this is all your catching in there. I have seen this in a local pond here and it is very perplexing trying to figure out the correct management steps to take.

Find the underwater points and fish them working your way deeper. See if the size of the fish increases you may be pleasantly surprised. Just need to find the right spot on 80 acres.

Cheers Don.
