My son really does have the right idea. We started out with such specific goals and did a huge amount of work to get there. But our goals have evolved. For example, a few years ago we would not take out any adult Bluegill because we wanted the max forage for our Bass; but now we happily let the kids from church catch 'em and even take a few home. It really is about enjoying the pond, enjoying the "work" and enjoying the results. The big Bass are a thrill, but really are secondary. Thanks for the kind words ewest, JB


Take great care of it, or let someone else have it.
