Hey Folks, this is my fist post, so im sure the question has been asked, but here we go, I have a one acre pond, with bg, lmb, black crapie and white crapie in it. its an older pond, my guess is about 30 years, has an island, and some 12 foot deep sections. whenever I catch bass, they seem very skinny, almost sucked in sides. most of the crapie I have caught are 9 to 12 inches and look good, its rare I see anything smaller, and there population seems low. some of the blue gills I have caught are HUGE, biggest I have ever seen. are they out competing the bass for food? I do see allot of small fish, 2 inch or less so I cant figure this out. should I fish the large ones(bg) out? a few of my buddies are comming this weekend and im thinking of hitting them hard. FISH FRY, ye ha.
