Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations HBG Recruitment Culling Needs to begin...I think?

I stocked them (about 300, all under 3", a few too many - maybe) the first and second year of the pond with only FHM's and the initial stocking of small gamefish. I think they out grew the gamefish's gape. Surely they are producing alot of small craw forage, but, I think they are also contributing to a muddy pond. I was cast netting them off the bottom in 7 foot of water and along the banks...they are everywhere.
