I built a new 2 acre pond Fall of 2012, by Fall of 2013 my pond was about 1/2 full. A nearby friend has a couple ponds on his lands and he started an active harvesting program pulling out any LMB under 14". Through the Fall, I moved 75 bass between 10 - 14" into my pond. From seining a pond he has I added about 300 bluegill in October. In January of 2014 I added 15 lbs of minnows, 2500 1-3" coppernose, 600 3-4" copernose and 500 redear. In February, I moved 15 more 12-14" LMB into the pond.
I would appreciate any thoughts as to if I need to add more bait fish, and should I stop adding LMB.
thanks
