I have a 1 year old pond that is 3/4 of an acre stocked with large mouth bass and bluegill. When the pond was built, I put in 5 stacks of pallets. This winter I added a couple of Christmas trees, and I have also built a couple of rock piles in shallow water.
A local fish distributor recommending stocking grass carp when I stocked the other fish. A year later, there are basically no plants in the water to speak of. The fish have some good artificial structure (listed above). Should I try to find a solution for more plant life, or should I be happy that I don't have the other problem - out of control algae/weeds.
Thanks for you opinions.
