I know you can but im just curious of what you guys think. I have a 1/3 acre CNBG growout pond that i've been using these past 2 years to supply a 7 acre lake that had pretty low numbers.
These past two years we've pulled out lots of native bass and put in ~7000 2-6" CNBG along with 35 12-15" pure florida bass that i grow also in other ponds.
With that being said, the bass in general in the lake have shown a big improvement in health. I started feeding about midway through this year and looks like i now finally have a decent population on BG from 1" all the way to 8". My 3-4" BG population seems to be struggling the most but we'll see what it looks like next year.
Im thinking my CNBG pond yeilds about 5000 2-6" fish a year with my feeding rate. I usually do about 3-4 fish moves a year.
As long as i don't see some bad affects of this next year, is there a problem with doing this every year if Big Bass is my goal for this pond?
Im wouldn't doubt it if i lose half the fish i put in to predation, so adding 3500 fish or 1750 per year might not be bad to enhance the forage...
