Well it was very crowded with small bass, we had the lake shocked last spring and were suppose to take out 300lbs of bass. we only got out 200 lbs, in the plan we were also suppose to stock the bluegill at the recommended size to keep the bass from eating all of them. We had it shocked by Southern Pond Management, as far as I know they are pretty reputable. The previous spring we brought in a load of threadfin and then the shock was done the following spring, not one of the threadfin shocked up to the top, so the bass ate most of them before they had a chance to spawn and establish a good population.
We do plan to lime and fertilize as soon as the water warms up to about 60 degrees.
Any thoughts on anything will help?
is the net idea a good one or am i wastnig money, how fast will fingerlings grow if they are put into this environment?
