My 1/2 acre pond I dug in October is almost full, and the ice is just starting to melt away. I am going to get 10lbs of fatheads as soon as I can.
I have two kids, 4 and 7, and want them to be able to catch fish out of the pond. They will also be swimming in the pond quite a bit. I want LMB because they are easy to find and fun to catch, and get fairly large. I have read here about HBG biting swimmers and I dont want to scare the wife and kids off.
I always see the SMB-YP combo talked about, and the LMB-HBG combo, but never a YP-LMB combo. Will the LMB eat all the YP since they dont spawn as fast as HBG?
I was thinking about starting off with about 25 LMB, 200YP, and maybe some RES. Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks
