Trying to keep this short as possible. I’ve been ask by the owners of the lake I fish to do some research, ask some questions.
The lake 130 acres back in 2013 was drained and restocked. It had a drain pipe issue and was out of balance so the owners saw it was a good time to start over. At that time ,early in the year it was stocked with bream, two different kinds and shad minnows. Was told about 165,000 head. Don’t know the exact time or number but later n the year crappie were stocked, black crappie,and then later that year 6500 F1 Bass. The bass have done wonderful. 5 to 9 lbs bass are abundant and look like footballs. The crappie are only about 8/9 inches long maybe a few 9.5. Have yet to see a 10 incher.
We’ve been told by someone that knows more than me, not hard to find that the lake needs minnows targeted for the crappie? He suggest Tuffy minnows.
So is this a good recommendation , any better advise?
Thanks
