Iread the posts on SMB-BG as forage combination. Wow that really sounds like an exciting and in my situation very viable alternative. When do the smallies spawn? What time of year would be best time to introduce a good number of them...i think at this point if i dont get any winter kill i have a jump on my forage base...what do you think? I have seen crayfish in the pond naturally but not many of them .I really have no idea as to the extent of the population of crayfish presently existing in the pond.
