Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations planning a PB member Yellow Perch experiment

SettlerGuy, your goal for a yellow perch pond is the same as mine. Only thing I was not expecting was how well the shiners ate up the perch minnows. One year might not get many shiners the next we will have millions on to of millions. Not sure if you have seen the video from this year. It was a very good year for common shiners in our pond.
The crickets are loud. This is like this around the north shore just west of the waterfall.

I think the ribbons are laid on the north west side of the pond because it is the first to see the sun in the morning and low wind. Only time that side of the pond sees the wind wave action is if we have an east or south east wind.

I do agree Bill, leave what I have going on with the limited recruitment and just add 100 pellet trained every year or 2.
