Thank you for all the replies and sharing your knowledge
Structure I am good, this is a fairly natural pond with lots of submerged trees, stumps, vegetation the pond is fairly old like 50 years, I have owned part of it for the last 6 and have been doing some management for the last 3 years since the dam blew out.
I will be harvesting bass this spring, any recommendations on how to reduce the population is it any fish caught or only the small fish caught.
Here are some questions based on replies and further reading on the site, like most I have limited resources and want to figure out how to best use my time and money to improve the pond.
First would I be better stocking few but large adult BG either purchased or sourced from another ponds. Is there guidance on minimum adult numbers or is it more about time i.e. more adult fish sooner the population will be established. Basically if I get 50 adult fish will that help or am I just wasting my time and money if I don't stock a minimum number of fish.
Second question would it help if I did the Anderson 250,000 GSH fry deal or I am I just wasting money? Would it be better stocking Large GSH again is there a minimum number I should stock?
