Was fishing the other evening in my almost 2 year old pond for crappie with a 1/32 oz jig, hung a 6" YOY last years baby , started to reel it in and a very large bass nailed it . Fought it for 15-20 seconds not gaining any line at all, and mrs bass let go of the crappie leaving no scales on the whole backend. So bass will definitely help with the population. Guessing it weighed 5-7 lbs... Bucket stocked
