I put 6-8 WE in my first pond. None was bigger than 2 lbs and maybe 15 inches...nice and fat lake fish. Just want to be able to say I "might" catch one through the ice sometime.
BTW...one was floating this spring. She was about 18" and 3-3.5 lbs after 2 years. Good growth, but there's lots of small bass (were, anyway) CC and BG for them to gorge on. That was a sad day in the Clark household
