OK I know you do not know this man. I wish eveyone could he is a mulit millionaire and could sale anything he just choose fish. He has some science with about everything he does but then it stops and salesman take over. You will not see me talk bad about folks they just have diff opinions. However I have seen WAY too many ponds ruined with $1,000's spend to hold back. I do not go around talking about him but if it comes up I say my peace.

I will say this he has opened the minds from the old school thoughts of many and I thank him for that. Also GA Giants have there place. In fact with Laurelew do not even think 300 is too many and not a bad idea given the situaiton. Bill you have enough knowledge to not let him steer you wrong he can sense that and may not try to oversell. If folks have some knowledge I do thin khe has good fish I just hate to see overstocking of fish (can you tell) Did you stock bluegill with the GA giants? I think you did and if so they will out compete greenies.

My problem is when I go to ponds where Ken has sold them 5-10K/acre. Seen it many times. Also they spend tons of $ on his water quality improvement products. Also great marketing with his "free water test". It states alkalinity should be above 200 (ya'll tell me if this is right). In GA if you have it above 8 your doing good. "You do not need to use ag lime it is slow" Use instead our quick lime with a buffer. He has this marketed with a nice name but it is hydrated lime. It works jumps alkalinity way up. See what I mean some science but then the hydrated lime is gone in a few months and guess what you need to spend more money with him.

ML I hope he responds to your post. I would Love to see his comments on some of these topics. However this site does not pay. I doubt he will be here. Ok Ken please make me eat crow and post here it would be fun.

BTW ML he is about 4 hours away and I have never competed with him directly. I just field calls in north GA where folks are so mad about spending 20K in the last 2 yearrs and stil have small fish. I got them on the right track but they to hear it takes a few years after reading about catalog.

Sorry Bill
