Thanks Meadowlark, I too wish we had a "Convention", that I would drive 4 hours for ! I will be stocking Tilapia as well this Spring, I'll probably be a couple of weeks behind you due to cooler temps. As for fishing...the results of your shocking survey will be the true measurement. That is, "IF" those hook"smart" fish don't see the boat coming, and swim to the other side of your pond \:\) Just messin with you, you are a great friend, and have been very helpful to me, I'm sure we'll be swapping stories in the months ahead.
