I have acess to 4 acre pond in central Georgia. The Lake is 20 ft deep or better at the dam. It was stocked 8 years ago with bass, bream (bluegill maybe others?), and I have been told crappie, although I have never seen or caught one. The lake was rarely fished until two years ago, I began fishing it then. I came to the conclusion that there were too many bass so I began harvesting only the small bass. The lake is still full of 1/2 to 1 lb bass. I can litterally catch 20-30 in a two to three hour period, go back the4 next day and do the same. Big bass are few and far between though. I have caught and released a few larger bass, but they seem to be thin. The bluegills I catch are nice size but there aren't alot of them. I beleive the bass have overpopulated, and don't have enough forage.
Any suggestions? Maybe stock shad?
