Birds don't bring fish any more than storks bring babies. Mysteries like this are usually solved by talking to well meaning friends. At this time I wouldn't bring in any more bass. You need bluegill first to establish a forage base.

As to grass, I think I would scratch the ground, not plow, and put out way too much bermuda seed. Not sure that it will grow in solid clay. Check around with the NRCS guys and see what they recommend.

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.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

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