I've been thining my larger GSH down, I've pulled 141 GSH in the 5-7" size range out of my 1/4 acre pond in the last three weeks. (564/acre) So far I haven't seen a noticable difference in the number of large shiners eating pellets in the evening.
Shorty, what method are you using to remove them. I think I have some that are getting to big that need to be removed. I really wasn't planning to stock them but must of been some in with the FHM. They've been in for 2 years now and I think some might be up to 8".I just stocked the LMB this spring so those big ones won't be getting ate anytime soon.
