Thanks Ewest. I also thought of constructing a rectangular pvc "box" that i could staple material and allow my FH to have ample room. I figured maybe a structure that is 3'high x 3' wide x 10' long would work. Then I would just staple the screening around it and drop fish right in. I could then scoop up and take as many as I need without having to chase them down. Would this work? Would reproduction rate drop if they are in deeper water, say 4 feet at the deepest point?
