A couple other observations and comments.

Didn't catch a bullhead last summer that I remember and haven't caught one this year yet either.

Also, thought my shiners had been gobbled up since the kids hadn't caught one this year yet, but they caught two of them Sunday.

I do have a few LMB in the pond as the kids caught one this weekend on a worm. I clipped one of it's fins to see how many we are catching over the summer. My boy is now starting to like fishing for bass, so I'll let him try reeling a few of them in.

I haven't got my aeration system in the pond yet, but that is the next thing as it took me awhile to get the dock in the water as well. The dock is in now though.

I haven't seen or caught any baby bass in the pond, so not sure if mine are reproducing or not. I now need to start the maintenance stage of managing the pond so I can keep this fishery moving forward.
