Well the other pond I have the blues in is .75 acre. I think they will take care of themselves for a little while. 25 ain't to many in a pond that has never had catfish. Im focusing my efforts on this other pond thats a little small but has 75 just because they will need aid in feeding.
when i get caught up im gonna go down to the other pond with 25 cats and catch all the bass out I can. then next spring i'll dump in say 400 CNBG.
That will be my test... two ponds 75 in one, 25 in the other. Im gonna try to feed them the most I can. We'll see what happens.
