Readers, AZpond guy can't very well use them as forage fish in his other ponds because he has his goldfish trained to escape entrapment. I think he should do like Cecil says and add about 25 to 30 8"-12" bass. When the bass get the gold fish under control fish with worms to remove the adult goldfish. Or just rotenone the whole pond and start over.
AZ if you are in a hurry to convert the pond to minnows and bgils, catch out what bass or catfish you can and then rotenone it and start over in a couple weeks. Bass me be so well fed that they will be hard to catch. Then rotenone is the best and quickest overall answer.
