i was under the impression that a pond with crappie should have clearer water so lmb can have a greater impact on bcp populations. howevere with that said. what would be the best way to fertilze a 5 acre pond & with what? CAN REGULAR GARDEN FERTILIZER BE USED & what time of year is best?
thanks for your input
Few people know more about pond management than EWEST. I strongly recommend reading, and then re-reading, the link he posted above.
Yes, clear water can help the bass find a lot more crappie. But, the crappie spawn before the bass. The crappie can put a big bite on the tiny bass, bluegill, and red-eared sunfish in a pond.
A lot more questions and observations will be extremely valuable to many other forum readers. Please give us more information, and please ask a lot more questions.
Regards,
