How do you find the balance of a pond? I have tried to seine, but my pond drops pretty fast to 12 feet, so it is not a good seine pond. I try to fish, but I am lucky to catch a single fish. I have noticed that all of the perch I catch are on the large size. Also, when I throw some food out for them in the morning I can count about 10 splashes going for the food. I did just start feeding again after stopping last year, so maybe I screwed them up. Last year at this time I could count 250 splashes eating the food, but that was before I put the mean LMB in the pond. I hardly ever catch a HBG or CBG under 7 inch. I don't see any perch around the 3 to 4 inch size. I do see a few 1 inch babies around the bank. I have also noticed that the LMB I cath are on the skinny size. I was thinking that I had too many bass, but I am not catching enough bass to make that conclusion. If there were too many bass and not enough food for them, wouldn't they be really easy to catch due to being very hungry?
