Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose 2.5 Acre Lake in Indiana, Stocking Tips for Fall

I think the sunfish types are biting swimmers for two main reasons: 1. the body hairs of swimmers look like midge larvae and aquatic worms common in every body of water; 2. the body moles on lighter skin look like snails which many sunfish select as food items. As natural food items become in short supply the fish get braver due to hunger and approach swimmers. Inactive or idle lounging swimmers will be bothered by fish more than active swimmers.
