My advice is a rule that comes from Bob L. Every pond has a limiting capacity and a balance. You need to harvest to maintain a healthy pond. For our pond, we are not trying to grow trophy anything. We try to grow "nice ones" of everything. We use harvest as a tool to help maintain balance. FWIW When we target a species for harvest, we remove one size class under the largest fish class.
