I’m tempted, but I’d end up hurting a SMB or two, and I’d really be ticked..

I’ll eventually catch one, or two. Hopefully someone will have the can’t miss solution that will work. I’ll try a GSH under a bobber again. I just need more time on the pond. Maybe the chicken livers.. Something has to work.

9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
