Ok we just fished one of our old ponds about a week ago that we had not caught any fish out of in more than 5 years. We have been wanting to renovate it but lack of funds have stopped that.

Anyway my mother-in-law insisted we fish it, and can you believe it when it was all said and done we pulled out 3 LMB all were 19 inches and 3.25 pounds. I think they were a little poor and could use some food. But what the heck could I stock a pond that may be full of this size of LMB?

So I guess my question is should we cull these LMB if so how many, or release them and figure out someway to feed them.

I have not caught any BG in there either and did add a few last year, but after seeing these fish I am sure they were a snack.

Please let me know your thoughts as we plan to hit the pond again in the morning and I would like to know my options and recommendations from you guys.

Thanks in advance.
