Yesterday was the first time we attempted to bass fish the lake and we were pleasantly surprised at how quickly those fish have grown. Lots of baitfish were installed 11 months ago (CNBG, RES, FHM, GS & inadvertently GSF), 4 Texas Hunter feeders have thrown nearly 1 ton of AquaMax, 25 tons of lime, Greg Grimes' fertilizer, Lake Life Pump... I know I'm missing something. It's starting to pay off! The lake is full of fish and the water is green. 3 Ponds: 8.5 acres, 1.5 acres, 0.5 acres

I saw what i was looking to see so we quit and went bow hunting. I now have a full appreciation of the financial, emotional and time commitment it takes to create and manage a quality fishery, albeit for only a short time (1 year). God help the guest who comes fishing and expects to fill his cooler full of bass. ;-) 3 Ponds: 8.5 acres, 1.5 acres, 0.5 acres

I tried to Photoshop Ben Affleck's face over mine and Justin Bieber's over my son's face but I didn't have the skills... 3 Ponds: 8.5 acres, 1.5 acres, 0.5 acres
