My pond still has no vascular plants, and it is nearly devoid of algae. I don't catch many fish, and most of the ones I do are ones I planted this spring. Many BG and some CC show up for the evening feed, but I think these may be nearly all the BG and CC in the pond. I never see a bass, but LMB were regular attendees at the evening feed in my old pond. I haven't seen hide nor hair of a YP since I planted them, and the only sign of shiners is an occasional fish feeding at the surface and a rare "mullet" jump. I'm wondering if some kind of lingering poison could account for the lack of plants and the apparent lack of fish too. The lack of fish began at the time I saw the furry critters going into my pond, so maybe that accounts for the lack of fish, but they wouldn't have destroyed the plants.
