I went down to my 1.5 acre pond today with a baitcasting net trying to catch some 5-6 inch bluegill to move to my 5 acre pond that ive been trying to build the forage base back up on. Anyway I didn't have much luck catching bluegill but I did catch a 1.8 lbs. Yellow perch. I had went fishing at Clarks hill lake one morning 3-4 years ago and caught 5 yellow perch that were about 6" long. When I got home I relized that they were still in my livewell so I just tossed them in the pond. I didn't even know if they could live in a pond this far south. I never thought that they could have survived all the large bass that are in that pond. I should have taken a picture of it but i figured he wouldn't live long enough for me to go get the camera. Pretty neat though. Would have thought as hard as I fish that pond that I would have caught it before now.
