I have a tiny pond - .25 acres or so - and have BG's, a few YP, and a few LMB's in it now. I stocked 5 pounds of fatheads a month ago and they've been pretty much decimated. I would like to try some more and am thinking of creating a safety zone for my minnows.
I just read the post about blocking off a small bay with a net to protect the minnows and that sounds intriguing to me. Problem is, I don't have a small bay. I do have a shallow beach area that I'm thinking of building a few circle pens and adding cement blocks for the minnows to lay eggs on. I can't help but think that once the pen becomes very crowded that some of the minnows will wonder outside and be nabbed by the BG's, YP's and LMB's. Is something like this feasible?
Thanks and good fishing,
Dan
