I have HSB in my 1 acre pond and they seem to be doing fine. I bought 30 of them a few months ago. They are feed trained though. I also have BG and RES for them to eat if they can as they get bigger, but they sure like that AM5and600! I have not caught one lately but my water is so warm I think thats a good thing. I know they don't do to well in warm water if they are caught. Specailly if they are 3 lbs or bigger. So right now I am just trying to avoid them till it cools down some!

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
