I have been lurking the forum a few days and it is loaded with great info! We just recently purchased a new home with our first pond. I'm learn a lot just from reading your posts!
Fishing the pond has been great! Lots of bass caught however many are 12-14" which it sounds like we should be removing instead of throwing back? We have also caught a few nice crappie and a bunch of bluegill. I am a bit surprise we have yet to catch any catfish.. One neighbor said not to add any to the game fish pond?
Over the last few weeks the pond has gone from zero moss/algae to a very thick layer around the edge and now floating sections in the middle. This has made fishing a bit difficult.
I think based on reading the forum manual removal and aeration may be the best solution but I wanted to post picture to get advise specific to my conditions from the resident experts.

I would think some of this cover is beneficial but with this much the fishing is not as much fun.
Thanks!
