Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations New pond

HV:

Just remember when reading catmandoo's posts, to substitute CNBG for BG. ewest said you are warm enough for CNBG to survive, so I'd stock them vs. Northern Strain Bluegill (BG).

I second Catmandoo's recommendstions on CC. I stocked 100+ in my pond, and cannot catch more than 1 per every couple of days, adn that's using trot or jug lines.

If you want to manage for large LMB, I strongly suggest buying the book "Raising Trophy Largemouth Bass" that's for sale in the Pond Boss reference library. There is a LOT of information in there, and you need to determine if that's the route that you really want to go once you find out what it takes to do it.

If that IS the route that you want to go, I'd also consider getting feed trained LMB and getting them to eat the Largemouth Pellets from Purina as soon as possible
