Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations New stocked pond - now what?

I'd take out some of the LMB that you catch, and some of the BG. I don't think you'd be hurting anything by removing 20-50 LMB and 100 BG to eat. Your BG stocking numbers were light by 50%, so I'd definately take out some LMB to eat before BG.

How much has your pond dropped this year? If it's dropped 2'-3', do you see any BG beds above water now?

Did you see signs of BG reproducing in your pond this year?

If you want to be selective about taking out the LMB, take out the skinnier/smaller ones.
