They may be the hybred crappie that are almost sterile.

hybrid crapie-cross of white ad black. You need to get a copy of PB magazine. I'm nervous if you read too much of the Ken Fish Hatchery magazine you will be really confused. Most of it is marketing with very little valid science. Sorry to be so blunt but somone has got to be.

There is a lot in the archives on crappie in ponds if that helps. Also includes info on hybrids etc.

Greg is right. If you use the Georgia Giant website, there is no science to back any of their claims.

Actually what they're saying is that turtles consume such a tremendous amount of oxygen from the atmosphere, that the water can no longer absorb enough at the air/water interface. It's a well known fact that aerations sytems are known to completely fail because of ponds holding more than ten turtles/acre. *rolleyes*

Now Grandpa. Let it all out.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
