I have found a new wrinkle in my pond we were fishing Saturday evening and a friend caught a catfish from our pond about 18" long. I can only think of a few ways catfish got in our pond.

1 - Previous ower put them in (he said there were no fish in the pond)
2 - Geese transported catfish eggs to our pond
3 - A couple catfish were in the BG/Shell Crackers or LMB when they were stocked.
4 - Someone else added them to the pond.

How will having catfish change how I manage my BG and LMB

Well at least my LMB and BG/Shell Crackers are doing fine it seems like.
