What did you use for the netting/ mesh for your cages? Are those just zip ties holding the netting to the frame? Would you recommend feeding the HBG in the cage and if so how?
I am thinking about stocking 1500 HBG, 20# FHM (now), 200 YP with subsequent stocking of 40 WE, and then 50 SMB. I understand the difficulty with SMB and WE in smaller bodies of water but would like to try it. If the SMB do not do well, eventually would stock LMB. I am currently working on structure for the fish which will include, palltets with cinder blocks, the new saturn style porcupine fish attractors (PVC), and various rock piles/ formations.
Any recommendations for stocking of new ponds based on this?
