Do perch take to pellet feeding better than bluegill? Which of the two would offer more pounds of fillets per year? I like both- with a bit of an advantage going to the perch. It seems most ponds in this area are bluegill/largemouth combo ponds. I can think of very few with perch in them, especially a small pond like this half acre (though it is quite deep in one stretch) Either way- I'm going with advice I get from here when I pull the trigger. Many guys I know have offered their opinion. None of them have a pond. Smallmouth do seem like they might be a decent option. I kind of like them better than largemouth anyway. Had quite a group of them following me today as I was flipping rocks to gather crayfish. Very cool to see them pounce on the sculpins that scoot out!
