I haven't been on the forum in a while, but I wanted to give an update. We have been catching LMB up to 9 lbs and CC up to 10 lbs. The CNBG are plentiful but small. I never stocked and BC and so far I haven't regretted that. I still work 50+ hours/wk so time to fish does not come as often as I would like. But the fishing is good most any day. In 2019 we took about 300 lbs (live weight) of fish out of the pond. That's going to have to increase now that the fish are getting big. I don't want the LMB to get over populated. I've got to make more time to fish, or find more helpers.

I just ordered a Hotwoods Aluma Sport 612 from their place in Emory and it should be here in a couple of weeks. My 9 year old grandson is going to spend the week with me on spring break in March, and we are going to break in the new mini pontoon. I hope that week is a preview of my retirement years!


Just an old guy who likes to fish.
