Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose On Mutt Pond

Same in my area. The local public BOWs are fished so hard, a 7 inch BG is a monster. One lake has a bag limit of 6 for BG. Another put a size limit of no smaller than 8 inches a few years back. I asked the ranger if a lot of folks catch 8 inch ones to keep and he said he hadn't seen one yet.

I am also hoping to have a few 8s in my puddle by the end of the summer. I caught a couple 7s a few weeks ago.
