I'm working on a plan to get rid of threadfin shad in 7 ac pond,
I am curious to why you want to get rid of the shad?
the reason I ask is my pond mgt company said I should consider
adding threadfin shad in my 4 acre pond.
This is directly from my survey/lake report:
"The threadfin shad is one of the most important forage species in
many lakes. They grow quickly, spawn early in their life cycle and
reproduce prolifically. These qualities make these shad great forage
for bass. Threadfin school in open water and swim slowly, which
makes them easy prey for bass. Threadfin tend to do better in fertile
(green) water because their food is the phytoplankton that causes the
water to become green"
