Cecil We are at the lowest Ph readings in 10 years. It seems that is why the perch have dropped off but Blue Gills and Bass are holding their own. IT seems every year there is a new set of rules and new problems to deal with. Book's are helpfull to a point but this board should be the Bible for everyone, it is the guy's in the field that see what actually happens. The Pond Guy that sees first hand what happens to a body of water all year long. The other day I was tongue lashed by a group of young student's on all the neww material out. My answer to them was work out in the field awhile or for the summer and actually see what is Pond Management then bring it back to the class room and apply it. I did mention the Pond Boss forum and got an answer that it was elementry.
I told them that if I put them in a room for a day or a week with a handfull of gentlemen off this board. They would get an education that was priceless and a resorce that can not be found anywhere on this planet.
Good luck
Scott
