Most have evolved to the simple answer of being super selective of who we allow to fish our ponds, specifically knowing that those select few know what they are doing.


I hear you, and I understand. And, I agree that this is probably the only solution, as much as I don't want it to be.

How do you tell someone that their angling abilities are not up to your standards?? Or do you.....should I come up with another reason for restricting his access?

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
