Thanks alot Bruce. I thought they all were but had to ask. I'de like to try getting some white crappie and see if I could get a cross breed going \:D I put the fish in the pond today around 10:00 this morning and haven't seen any floaters yet. Trying to get fish to eat pellets but, they haven't seemed interested this year yet. I've got lots of minnows in pond for the fish and everything looks good but, I sure do wish I could get them to eat the pellets to get some weight on them .Is there any special brand of fish food that bg,bc and perch prefer?
